My story

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

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Darby is a Chihuahua/Terrier Mix and has the cutest short legs..

Darby has recovered from his leg surgery. Many of you remember that Darby had a growth plate on his front leg that closed up early. The larger bone in that leg kept growing and started to twist. He had several xrays done and it was found that he had enough space in his elbow to have the smaller bone in his leg cut, a pin was added for stability. The reasoning was that the muscle in his upper leg would pull the bone into place as he walked. Well, it worked, the pin has been pulled out and he has been recovering for the last 4 weeks or so. He will always have a limp, since that leg is shorter then the other, and when he stands his foot still points outwards. So, he is not perfect, but any further damage was stopped and he gets around just fine.
Darby hasn't resumed using the dog door yet, but he gets plenty of chances to go outside. He is crate trained and he loves to lay in a lap and sleep the day away, when he isn't wrestling with his sister Clarissa.
Darby looks to have some terrier, and the other mix we can only guess that it may be a little Dachshund or Corgi, since his brother Buster also had his short legs and big ears. He is 8 months old, neutered, current on his basic vaccines and chipped. Adoption fee $275.00

More about this rescue

Maggie was our first foster dog and our inspiration. Maggie did not come to our house alone, she gave birth to 11 puppies. We adopted Maggie several months later. That has been over two years now, and we continued to foster puppies and moms. So it is in her honor that we have named this rescue after her.
Miss Maggie May's Rescue is an all volunteer rescue group based in Tucson, AZ. Founded on September 4, 2012. We provide medical care, spay/neuter and vaccinations for dogs that have found themselves deemed not adoptable in our local shelter. It could be moms to be, families, puppies, sick or injured dogs. We also take in strays and owner surrenders. We are committed to rescuing, rehabilitating, and giving these dogs a safe place to get well before finding them a loving home. All our dogs are fostered in private volunteer homes.
If you are interested in becoming a foster parent, volunteering or adopting please contact us at missmaggiemay@cox.net
We are always looking for donations of food, crates, puppy pens (exercise yards) and monetary donations for our medical fund.
