nd a few missing teeth, but has no trouble eating. Maya was owner surrendered due to a move to a non-animal friendly apartment. She had been with her previous owner for 18 months after her first owner died. Maya is friendly with other dogs and she has never shown any aggression. She has the run of the house and has never been crated. However she went into a crate and settled down without problems. She enjoyed riding in the car and fell asleep during the trip. She has been in foster care in a home with 2 other Bostons, one of each gender. She has adjusted beautifully with an easy introduction. She walks well on a leash. Maya is very quiet, rarely barks, but will whimper when she wants to be on the sofa and will sit there with the other dogs or with the humans. She prefers to sleep on the sofa at night where she stretches out. She enjoys her food, both breakfast and dinner, but does not play with toys. Maya is house trained but has had some accidents when the humans did not tune in to her cues. She would do well in a home with an older child or a retired older person. She loves cuddling, petting, and attention. She is a lovely, loving lady. Maya Maria is spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated and heart worm negative. To find out more about Maya, call her foster mom, Sandy, at 443-763-6567. Maya Maria is in a foster home near Baltimore, MD. Her adoption fee is$225.00 Please use the foster momma or dad's contact information above for questions. The process always begins with an application which can be found at The Boston Terrier Rescue of East Tennessee website Note that in most cases, we do not adopt to families with small children, e.g., "under 6," as a precaution to the child's safety and the dog's safety. In some cases with larger Boston mixes or other dogs, we do make exceptions. Please ask the foster momma. We prefer to place dogs within driving distance of where they are being fostered. If someone from outside the local area is approved for adoption, they must be willing to personally drive/fly to get the dog. The East Coast division (NC/SC/VA/MD/DC) does have special transport capabilties for their kids. Ask them. Also, submission of an application and fee does not guarantee adoption of any specific Boston since that particular dog may have applications pending or may not be the right match for you.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
