About Maddie:
Maddie’s story started with a fight for survival. Brought home at 10 weeks old, she beat the odds against both parvo and giardia thanks to round-the-clock care and an unbreakable spirit. Because of that bond, she is one of the most affectionate, loyal companions you will ever meet. Her morning kisses are unmatched, she greets her humans with absolute unconditional love, and she is perfectly house-trained.
Maddie is a girl of sophisticated tastes—she absolutely
loves fresh fruits, vegetables, and eggs
as special treats! If you are looking for a solo sidekick for road trips, quiet walks, and couch cuddles, Maddie is your girl. On individual adventures, she is a dream companion.
Maddie’s Ideal Home & Triggers:
While Maddie has a heart of gold for her humans, she has made it clear that she does not want to share her castle. Her scars will show that past dog fights with siblings was not unusual for her. She has resource guarding tendencies and selectivity that make it unsafe for her to live with other dogs.
To ensure Maddie thrives, her new family should be mindful of a few specific triggers:
No Other Pets:
Maddie needs a home where she is the only dog. She does not like to share toys or attention.
Barking Dogs:
Other dogs barking is a major trigger for her and can cause her to react defensively, so she needs a home away from dog parks or high-traffic dog areas.
Quiet Environments:
Large crowds scare her, so she prefers a peaceful, low-key lifestyle over busy events or crowded gatherings.
She wants to be the center of your universe, and she has more than enough love to give to fill a whole house.

Maddie is incredibly well cared for and loved. Her adopter will receive:
