Maddie is one of the sweetest
and well behaved Boxer girls you could ever meet. She is a real love and
although she gets along great with other dogs, she is a bit clumsy when she
plays so can be a little much for smaller dogs and puppies. At the dog park
near her foster home, she does great with all the other dogs who come there
- but she ends up spending more time asking all the people to pet her than
playing with the other dogs. She does play well with other dogs, she just
prefers the company of people when they are giving her attention. Her only
issue was her food guarding, which her foster mom has been working with and
it isn't really an issue anymore. The good thing about Maddie is that
she wants to please and when she is told “No”, she listens. Overall, she is
a very easy going girl who is a real sweetheart with everyone she meets.

Included are some new photos of
Maddie from her foster home. Everyone who has met Maddie has quickly
fallen in love with her! We are recommending a home with children over
the age of 10, due to some food guarding that the foster mom is working to
correct. Maddie listens well and wants to please!

Maddie is doing fabulous in
her foster home!! This girl will make some family VERY happy when she is
adopted! Maddie has a wonderful personality - she is very sweet and very
well behaved. Maddie is house broken and crate trained, but could use some
leash walking manners. She loves meeting new people and warms up to them
almost immediately. She doesn't jump on people at all and she is not a
barker. Matter of fact, her foster home hasn't heard her bark yet!
Maddie's foster mom exposed her to a family member's kids, who are 3 and
5 years old, and she did wonderful! She did not mind the kids yelling and
carrying on and she enjoyed being around them. Maddie especially likes to
give out kisses. She also loves to play and would run behind the kids in the
yard, but never once knocked them down or tried to take a toy away from
them. Maddie also enjoys being with other dogs and integrates with them very
easily.
Maddie's foster mom has had to get used to a tail wagging when Maddie
gets excited and there is a kink near the end of her tail where it appears
it may have broken at one time and then healed crooked. Maddie is spayed and
ready to go to her new home. With her mild mannered personality, she is a
fit for almost any situation!

Maddie was found as a stray and will be coming into rescue next week once
she has been spayed. Maddie comes au naturale with floppy ears and a long
tail. Her soon to be foster mom met her at the shelter today and reports she
fell in love with this very happy girl who just wants to play, play, play
when she isn't climbing in your lap in true Boxer fashion! The shelter
reported she reacted positively with other dogs and when tested with cats,
she kept her distance and was a little afraid of them but didn’t act
negatively. The shelter also reports she has some food guarding issues. More
information will be posted once she heals from her spay and is settled in
her foster home.
