Description:

Meet Maggie May!

Maggie May was surrendered to a shelter when her owners could no longer take care of her. She has a nice temperament, friendly and has even graduated from an obedience training class!

UPDATE FROM THE FOSTER:

Maggie May is a sweetheart with a great personality. Despite her size (think a large shepherd on short legs), she is a snuggler who wishes she could pass as a lap dog.

There isn't much extra weight on this lady. She just has a thick, bunny soft coat. Maggie May has the entire family participating in her daily exercise because she loves to walk nicely on a leash and explore so much! It is hard to say no to outside when she "sits pretty" and asks, without barking but instead clicking her teeth.

Maggie May loves to hang out in her kennel even when she has the freedom to roam anywhere upstairs.

Maggie May knows the commands: sit, sit pretty, lay down, stay, and (if a meal is involved) kennel up. She has taught me that training can go both ways. I now know how she asks for food, a rub down, outside time, her bed, and time to play hide & seek. My young children have even learned and participate with every aspect of her care.

Maggie May is the companion that will make each member of the family feel as though she is "their" dog. Is she yours?

Thank You!

Medical Note: Because of Maggies big flat feet, she has issues with recurrent cysts between her toes. She may also have some allergies as an underlying cause of the cysts. They have been managed so far with antibiotics as needed but could need more long term treatment (like steroids or atopica)

*The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility and does not come with a pedigree. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed. Sometimes the pets appear to be a particular breed(s) in the pictures we receive from our rescue partners and when they arrive we are surprised to see an entirely different breed(s) in person! If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess. It is with deep longing that we wish there was a breed called "cute" as we believe all of our dogs would fall under this new breed classification!

Completion of an Adoption Application via our website www.midwestanimalrescue.org is the best way to show your interest in an animal and is the first step in our adoption process.

*Animals who are not fully vaccinated and altered are not eligible for long distance adoption.

When you adopt a pet from Midwest Animal Rescue and Services, your adoption fee covers: Microchip and registration, Core Vaccines including Rabies, Distemper and bordetella, age appropriate heartworm testing or FeLV-FIV testing, sterilization, heartworm/flea-tick prevention and deworming while in foster care.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.
