Maddie is a wonderful senior gal looking for a place to spend her golden years! She wants nothing more than to sleep the day away, preferable by her people’s side, but is content sleeping in her crate while her people are at work as well. She has free-roamed for short periods of time and has done great, so I think she would enjoy full free-roaming permission. Maddie prefers to sleeps on the bedroom floor at night. She is fully potty trained and hasn’t chewed on anything besides her toys.
Maddie has loved getting pets from everyone she meets. Her tail wont stop wagging if she sees someone walking towards her or hears her name. Maddie is gentle with children and loves that they always give her treats! She is highly food motivated—especially for peanut butter! She has met other dogs and tends to ignore them after meeting. She has not met a cat in my care but is not reactive to small animals running by her on walks.
Maddie has arthritis and a bad hip so she she favors one of her back legs, but she is on meds for both and will be for the rest of her life. Adopters should expect about a $20/month meds cost depending on where prescriptions are filled, coupons, etc. She still gets around great though, and is fine climbing stairs and can jump into a smaller car herself or a larger one with assistance. Though she will sleep all day if you let her, she enjoys short adventures outside to see new places. She loves car rides and happily watches out the window or, you guessed it, sleeps!
If you are looking for a quiet, easy to take care of dog, Maddie is the one for you! She will excitedly greet you with a toy, give big kisses, and sit next to you for pets! This adorable happy-go-lucky girl deserves a great home and soft bed to call her own.
