Maya the Dog needs a home
Maya is a beautiful 5 year old hound gal. She is about 50#... she could stand to gain some more. Maya is such an easy going gal, and great with kids- she loves them! Came to us from another rescue in Central Cal.
Maya is a distemper survivor - as a result, she has neurological injuries that cause her to twitch and jerk. Despite her disability, she is an active girl and enjoys her walks. When she's walking at a good pace, you can barely see any twitching. It's mainly noticeable when she's at rest, though it has improved. She does not require any special treatment or care - having survived distemper, she is now immune to it. The only thing she needs is a lot of food to maintain her weight. Her original illness was over 2 years ago, and since then she has been healthy, aside from her jerky movements.
She is one of the happiest and friendliest dogs here. She gets excited when she sees her favorite people and goes running right over to them for cuddles. She's always ready to meet new friends too.
Good with big and medium dogs, but she does chase the little ones, unless she's used to them. Probably not good with cats.
