My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Maggie's being adopted! 3.8.11. Her new name is Kona!
Meet Maggie! She's a precious & vivacious little nugget of love. Weighing in at 10lb & being 12 week old, this little black & tan mix is expected to be a small-to-medium adult pup. The vet said she is possibly shepherd/lab & will max out at 40-45 lbs, however even this weight seems a little high since she's only gained 5 lbs from 8 weeks old to present.

We have taken a survey on her breed via our facebook page & the consensus is she is a heeler/shepherd/chihuahua mix. I definitely believe the chihuahua, or jack russell or border collie if you told me either of them, because of her temperament & smarts. While Maggie is very energetic, she naps frequently after her romps through the house, either playing with us or the dogs here.

Maggie has a beautiful short-hair, black coat with her face & legs having heather beige (with black) and the insides of her ears & her bootie being tan. It seems her ears get closer to standing up & being pointy every day. If she continues as she is, my guess is she will look like a 30-35 lbs Manchester Terrier with heather beige instead of red highlight area. Awesome! [but i could be wrong]

It's hard to believe this tiny girl was found wandering down a lonely road in the Sewanee Mountains Jan 14th. A lovely couple saw her, bundled her up, and took her home to safety. She received her first round of shots & wormer the following Monday from their vet where Maggie was given a clean bill of health. Maggie has been given bordetella, a 2nd round of wormer, and will be spayed once old enough (minimum 12-14 weeks) as well as receiving her rabies shot.

Despite her small stature, she is quite the little spitfire. Maggie will gnaw on a bone that is almost as large as her. She will romp & play around the room & bark at whatever toy or bone has her attention. Then she will nap. Upon waking up, we immediately take her out to potty & she comes inside to do the routine all over again. During the night, she wakes us up to go potty once, around 3am, by whimpering and/or barking from her kennel. She has already learned to go into her kennel with the coaxing of a small treat.

Maggie is great with adult dogs as well as puppies. She has lived with large-breed foster dogs so far as well as one small-breed dog. She's doing great with pottying outdoors; when taken out regularly, her indoor accidents are a minimum. She's even figured out the doggie door & will go outside to potty all by herself, which is a huge step for such a little one.

Maggie will be great with kids if they are not averse to sharp puppy teeth.

Adoption fee is $90. Thank you for wanting to share your home with one of our rescued pups!

If you are a parent adopting for your children, please remember we do pick the best home for our pups. If there are 2 applications that come in at the same time, for example, and one will be a better fit, that is the one we choose. Many parents pump up their children about getting a specific puppy, and it can be very sad for the child if the particular puppy isn't a good fit unbeknownst to them. We put this disclaimer here because a couple of parents have been upset when a home that used doggy daycare & had a fenced in yard was chosen over crate-all-day without a backyard. Peace.
