From the Foster:
Maggie is a ball of cuddles and energy. She loves long walks, being chased, and standing on your lap. She's very smart and has excelled in training (she is very food motivated which makes it easier). Maggie is really affectionate; even when she is chewing on her toys, she wants to sit on or near you. She has always been an only dog so her pet social skills are lacking; she REALLY wants to play with all dogs but usually just growls when they get close. Maggie is more nervous around men, but she warms up well and adores her foster dad. She needs the extra exercise and affection of a "working" breed, but her wits and unconditional love more than make up for it. Also note, she isn't even 2 yet so there is lots of room to train her to be your perfect dog.
All dogs are in individual foster homes throughout the Twin Cities.
