Original: Maggie is being surrendered because her owner is expecting a baby and Maggie is a very needy girl. She is described as a very needy and jealous girl. She is jealous of other dogs and when her owner is on the phone she will pace and whine. Maggie’s owner feels that she cannot give her the time she deserves and needs.
Maggie is housebroken. She is good with children of all ages. She is good with male dogs, but snaps at females. She lives with cats and is good around horses. She is a submissive urinator, but if she is ignored when you first come home, there is no problem. She is crate trained and it is recommended that Maggie is crated when left alone.
Maggie is obedience trained and will sit, stay, give paw, roll over (one way), and waves. Maggie growls when she plays, but it is only in fun! Maggie loves her squeaky toys. She loves to play ball and swim. She is very healthy, but will develop urinary infections if allowed to swim in stagnant water.
Maggie snores really loud! She is tattooed. She will paw at guests in order to get their attention. She loves attention. She has passed her CDX, CGC, and Therapy Dog training. She started Utility training, but stopped going because she would wander over to other people. Maggie is no longer a Therapy Dog because she would paw at the elderly people for attention.
Update: Maggie is fitting in quite well with her new family!
