Happy Gotcha Day, Maui!!
Meet Maui! These super sweet 5 years old girl was just rescued along with her 10 puppies. What a trooper! Even with the hardships she has gone through, being abandoned at the shelter and having to feed 10 hungry puppies, Maui manages to have a smile on her face at all times. When I first saw her, all she wanted was to get out of the cage and have some human interaction. She loves being petted! When she finally got out of the cage and was allowed to play outside for a bit of a break from her puppies, she lit up. This girl truly deserves a home where she can be appreciated, without the fear of being dropped off at another shelter. Anyone that opens their heart and home to this wonderful girl will surely be rewarded. Unfortunately she is also heartworm positive so as soon as we can, she will be treated. Maui will be available for adoption in a few weeks, once her puppies are weaned and she is done with her heartworm treatment.
MAUI UPDATE: Maui has successfully done her first round of HW treatment. She has one more treatment at the end of July but that should be a lot easier for her. She was a real trooper through the first round. She is very sweet and easy going. Her favorite thing to do is to sleep on the bed or the couch. She would be perfect for someone ready to give lots of affection and willing to share the couch .
UPDATE: Maui is an incredibly social dog! She has been steadily improving since her heartworm treatment last week. While she was pretty sick when she got to my home she still exhibited true lab spirit. She is incredibly affectionate and loves to be petted, rubbed, stroked or just to snuggle on the sofa. She gets a sparkle in her eye when she sees the leash and her tail doesn’t quit wagging while she waits patiently at the door for us to go out for our short walks. She still gets exhausted after a brief walk around the block but she loves it every step of the way. She gets excited when she sees other people or dogs across the street and I can tell she can’t wait until the vet says it is safe for her to have more activity. She’ll be a bundle of energy once she recovers. She seems to be really loyal and is looking for someone to bond with – she wants to love someone. She also would be great in a home with another dog to keep her company and a yard to chase squirrels and birds around!
UPDATE: Maui just received treatment for heartworm. She is convalescing until she can be introduced into another foster home or forever home! She’s on pain medications right now but she is going to be spunky once she recovers! Everyday her tail is wagging more. Everyone who has met Maui tells us how wonderful she is. She is going to make some owner very happy soon.
