Trixie has been waiting four months in Texas for her turn to travel north, and she is still waiting. The 2-year-old, 22-pound dog was found as a stray, and her story carries the kind of heartbreak that Small Dog Rescue of New England says happens far too often. Trixie had a litter of puppies, but rescuers could not find them. Sometimes, the organization explains, people take the puppies to sell and then abandon the mother.
