Maggie the Dog needs a home

Updated: 2/15/18


Name: Maggie


Gender: Female


Breed: Hound Mix


Age: Approx 4 years old


Weight: Approx 60 lbs


 


I know I’m just a hound dog from the South, and down here I am a “dime a dozen” but, I need you.


 


See, nobody wants a dog like me. But they don’t even take the time to get to know me.


 


The shelter people saved me from a bad man. I wouldn’t have survived much longer if they hadn’t come. Some of my friends weren’t so lucky. The bad man didn’t think we needed dog houses. He kept us skinny on purpose so we would hunt for him. I didn’t want to hunt. I wanted to be someone’s baby. But he made me. And he hurt me when I didn’t obey. When the animal control people found me, I was so skinny. I cowered when they looked at me. I dug a hole to hide in. I was afraid they were there to hurt me too. But the lady took me, and she put me in the car where it was warm. She brought me to the vet. She fed me. She loved on me. The volunteers here taught me that people are kind. They let me play in the yard. They taught me how to walk on a leash. They gave me lots of love.


 


I’m not your usual Hound Dog. I love friends of all sizes. I don’t chase cats. I am so submissive. I LOVE children. They are the best!! I ride quietly in the car with you. I NEVER bark. I am gentle, loyal and loving.


 


I need someone to make me part of their family. I will be the best dog you ever had.


 


Adoption Fee: $400.00


We are a Wisconsin state licensed dog rescue -WI# 402433


 


***We do not have a central adoption center at this time. All our dogs are in private foster homes within WI. At this time we only place our dogs in areas of WI. The breed of our dogs is our best guess with the help of our veterinarians.


Our Weight Classes are as follows:

0- 25lbs - Small

26- 45lbs - Medium

46-89 - Large

90+ X-large

If you are adopting an adult dog, which we consider 6 months of age or older, your adoption fee includes the following:


Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper shots, dewormed, flea & tick preventative, heartworm tested and microchipped.


If you are adopting a dog younger than 6 months of age, the dog will be up to date on the shots as per the dogs age. The dog will be dewormed, flea/tick preventative and microchipped. We only spay/neuter our dogs by 6 months of age. If you decide to adopt a younger dog than 6 months of age, they will need to be spayed/neutered at one of our preferred clinics. This will be determined by your contract along with the month they should have their surgery. This is included in your adoption fee.


Once you are approved with our rescue, you can meet any one of our dogs within the fosters home. If you are interested in the dog you met, you can take the dog home under our mandatory foster to adopt program. You receive 5 days to see if the dog is the right fit for your home.


If it is, we will conduct the home visit and finalize adoption. If it is not, it is returned to the foster. We are happy to find you another dog that meets your needs in your home.


If a dog is listed as PENDING, a family has met the dog and planning on adopting the dog after the home visit has been conducted. We always suggest sending in an application for a dog because there are times where the dogs are given back to us under the foster to adopt program. There are many reasons dogs are returned but normally it just was not the right fit for all.
