ABOUT :

Meet Maisie! Maisie was surrendered to an overpopulated shelter in LA, along with her siblings and her mother. The whole litter were facing euthanasia due the excessive amount of surrenders. Unfortuantely, Maisies mom did not make it out. Thankfully, Maisie was able to be saved, has now made her way to Canada to find her forever home.

When she first arrived at the shelter in LA, Maisie was quite nervous. She took her time to open up.  Since then, she has made AMAZING progress!  Now, she has proven to be a resiliant girl, who’s confidence has sky rocketed.  While Maisie may need a minute or two to adjust to a new situation or person, she quickly comes around and bounces back her to normal happy personality. She loves people, and wants to be around them. She loves running around and playing - especially with her ball or with her chew toys. She walks great on leash, and she even likes playing in water. She sleeps through the night with ease. She has learned to be comfortable alone, and will wait in her crate or by the door for her people to come back home.  She is great with other dogs, but plays rough. She would need another dog who would be tolerant of her play style, at least until she learns to be more polite with her canine friends.

Maisie is still young, at only 8 months and after having spent most of her short life in a shelter, she did not have the opportunity to get a good foundation. She needs a family who is ready to teach her to play politely, and to work on basic puppy life skills with consistency and by demonstrating leadership. Her ideal home would have space for her to run and play. While she has not shown any signs of aggression at all, we do not recommend placing her with children as she plays rough and hasn’t learned not to play bite yet - and she can jump up and knock over younger kids (she loves to wrestle, what can we say!). Maisie is very smart, and picks up on new skills quite quickly.  With a family who takes some time to help her learn, she will be perfection!

WORDS FROM HER FOSTER:

Maisie is one of the sweetest and most loving dogs I’ve ever met. She has a huge heart and forms strong bonds quickly (she’ll become your shadow in the best way). She loves cuddles, is great with people and other dogs, and always brings a calm, happy presence to the home. Maisie is the perfect mix of chill and playful; she’s just as happy snuggled up on the couch as she is going for a walk or playing outside. She’s incredibly smart, eager to learn, and picks up on routines quickly. Sometimes she gets a little overexcited after a fun activity, but all she needs is a little quiet time to reset. She adapts quickly to new environments and isn’t afraid of new experiences. Maisie truly just wants to love and be loved and anyone who adopts her will be getting an amazing companion with so much to give.
