MAGGIE-MOO - CATTLE DOG / AUSTRALIAN CATTLE DOG/BLUE HEELER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Cattle Dog / Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler / Mixed (short coat). **This is a courtesy listing for Frosted Faces, Vintage Paws Animal Rescue** Meet Maggie, AKA Maggie-Moo to her (many) friends! Maggie is a BIG, beautiful, senior Cattle Dog; she is approximately eight-years-old and weighs over 80 pounds. Maggie came to the shelter system when her former family developed severe health issues and were no longer able to care for her, or the other dogs in the home. The family was going to euthanize Maggie and her little buddy, Chico, because they had nowhere for them to go. Maggie was severely overweight at intake, weighing 84.6 pounds. We are happy to say that she has already lost four-and-a-half-pounds in the time she's been at rescue! Maggie actually enjoys being active and walks perfect on leash, making her weight-loss goals super obtainable. She enjoys trotting around the yard and will chase the ball or toy and bring it back. From there, she enjoys sitting and chewing on her toy, or trotting around with it in her mouth to show you how CUTE she is! Maggie is a happy-go-lucky and social dog who gets along with everyone she meets. She loves people and is happiest when she can be a part of the family, just hanging out wherever you are. Maggie also does great with other dogs, both big and small. We have introduced her to a variety of different dog personalities and she is very social and tolerant with everyone she has met so far. Maggie is currently in a temporary foster home and they report that Maggie goes to the door when she needs to potty, "is just the chillest girl," and "is so sweet and just wants to be included in everything". Maggie is looking for a family who is committed to her weight-loss goals so that she can live her longest, healthiest life! We are open to a foster or foster-to-adopt family for Maggie! Maggie-Moo is full of love and has SO much to offer a new family. Could that lucky family be YOURS? Maggie is up to date on her vaccinations and previously spayed.
