Meet Maggie! She is a Great Pyrenees, around 2-3yrs old and currently underweight at 75lbs. We can't emphasize enough how calm, sweet, smart, and gentle she is.
Maggie was found as a stray with a bad case of flea allergies causing hair loss and inflamed, irritated skin. She has since been treated for fleas, now her skin is starting to heal and hair is beginning to grow back. Despite being uncomfortable, she is as sweet as they come.
She LOVES all people. She is a big leaner and likes to rest her head in your lap. She has been great with the few kids she has encountered. She doesn't jump up at all.
Maggie gets along well with the two large dogs in her foster home. She doesn't care to play much with them but they bring her a lot of confidence. She would do best with another dog in her forever home. Due to her being so mellow and gentle, we think she would do well with little dogs and cats too.
She is very calm and low energy. When it's time to eat is when she gets most excited and even a little playful. She is smart and treat motivated, she has quickly picked up on 'sit'.
Does great on the leash, she doesn't pull and likes to stay very close to you on walks. She enjoys car rides and jumps right in. She recently went on outings to a couple of pet stores and did really well, she was especially interested in the toy sections.
Maggie can be a little timid and shy but is curious and does well with some reassurance. We have yet to hear her bark.
She is house trained. We have not tried crating her as she does just fine without one. She tolerates baths and the groomers very well, likely it feels good on her skin.
A little over a week in her foster home, she started sleeping belly up for the first time. She loves dog beds.
Maggie is the sweetest. We know the perfect loving family is just waiting for her and they'll get to be a part of her amazing transformation into a healthy, happy dog.
Maggie is spayed and up to date on vaccines. Her adoption fee is $250. She is currently in a foster home in DFW area of Texas. Out of state adopters are responsible for arranging their own transport.
