My story

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

Madeline`s journey has been one of adaptation and resilience. She`s navigated through different homes and environments, each shaping her into the unique and lovable pup she is today. While she may not be a cuddle bug, Madeline`s appreciation for attention grows with time, her affection shining through in subtle gestures and moments.

Her playfulness emerges gradually, a testament to her adaptable nature. From play bows with other dogs to bounding happily around the backyard, Madeline`s joy is infectious. Yet, she remains stoic in her demeanor, her eyes reflecting a mixture of curiosity and caution, always questioning the world around her.

But it`s her easy-going personality that truly sets her apart. Whether lounging in her sploot position or keeping a watchful eye on her humans, Madeline`s presence brings a sense of calm and contentment. Her ideal home would be one filled with love, patience, and perhaps another furry companion to share in her adventures.

In a world of constant chaos, Madeline is a beacon of tranquility—a reminder that sometimes, the best things in life come in the form of a potato-shaped dog with a heart of gold. So if you`re searching for a loyal companion who will stand by your side through thick and thin, look no further than Madeline. She may just be the missing piece to your puzzle of happiness.

In foster Madeline has shown all of her best sides! Here`s what Madeline`s foster had to say about her: Madeline is a friendly, low-key dog who loves people, walks and naps. She’s the perfect balance between cuddly and independent. Her crate is her safe-place and she’s happy to occupy herself with a chew toy. She loves to sunbathe and keep tabs on the lizards in the yard.

She is a sweet middle-aged lady with pep in her step. She loves meeting new people and charms everyone with her sweet face and wiggle butt. Madeline is great with kids. She needs time and patience to become comfortable with other dogs, but does have a great doggie friend she loves to play with. She is so easy to live with, time has flown by with her as a foster. Now it’s time to find her forever home!
