Maisie

MEET MAISIE! Once lost with her mama and siblings, this little girl was scared of the world and unsure of how to walk on a leash or what toys and couches are for. Her cuddly and curious side has now emerged in her foster home and she is the sweetest, cuddliest puppy. Now about 10 months old and 33 lbs, she is thought to be a hound mix (we know what her mom and siblings look like, but not dad) and will remain a compact size. Her foster pawrents report that she is incredibly smart, active, energetic and agile. She loves yogurt, peanut butter, carrots, celery, blueberries and strawberries - and the way she sticks her little tongue out is the cutest thing ever. You will fall in love when she sticks it out and snores when it’s nap time! She also has amazing ears and the cutest curly tail. Her favorite toy is a Kong filled with yogurt and peanut butter, and she absolutely loves playing fetch or playing “catch me” with other dogs. Smart little Maisie is potty trained (and knows how to use a doggy door) and crate trained and will go in at bed time (but will steal a cuddle in your bed if you let her!) or when you need to go out and do people things. She has met teenagers and did great. She is not mouthy at all and just likes to lick and give kisses. She also never barks and doesn’t care if another dog steals her toy - she will just try to play tug. Although she is a little shy when she meets new people, once she feels comfortable (it takes about ½ day) she will cuddle you to pieces. She instantly does well with other dogs and lives with two resident dogs. They love playing and often go hiking on trails and play along the river. The little pack is adorable and Maisie is learning the ropes from them. Maisie should go to a home with at least one other dog in it. Maisie’s adoption donation fee is $450, which includes spay/neuter, routine vetting and a microchip.
