Comments: Maggie May just came into
WAG's care. She is an Akita mix, with what - we don't
know. She was adopted once from the
shelter and then returned a few weeks later because the
adopters were moving. Sadly, this put Maggie in danger
of being put to sleep if a new home wasn't found quickly. No
one came to adopt her and we couldn't let her be euthanized.
She is just too sweet. Maggie loves to cuddle and will
sit on command. She jumps right into a crate in the
back of a car and rides quietly. She was temperament
tested at the shelter and passed on the food, toy and treat
tests. She was fine with cats and ignored other dogs.
She is a happy well-behaved girl who will make someone a
wonderful companion. She wants to live in the house
and spend as much time with her family as she can.
When she's outside, she will need a secure 5-6 foot fence
with a secure gate. Maggie walks nicely on a leash and
will make you smile. We've learned that Maggie barks
and has a tendency to wander. So you will need to keep
an eye on her until she feels at home. She would do
best in a country setting. Maggie has LOTS of energy and
needs a home where she can get LOTS of attention. Maggie is up to date on her
vaccinations and is micro-chipped.

Comments:
Kelley is now in her long-term foster home
where she is learning her house manners. She
is very sweet and needs her own family badly. She came to
us from a shelter where she had been brought in as a stray. She
had followed a girl home from school and her family never came
to claim her. She is learning to enjoy quiet time in
her crate. Kelley accept treats gently and walks well on a
leash. We learn more about her every day. We do know
she is FAST! - a speedy Akita.
Kelley has been diagnosed with pemphigus which
is an auto-immune disorder. She will eventually need to be
on steroids and supplements. And she needs a good SPF-15
sunscreen on her nose when she is out in the sun. She can
live a long and happy life!
UPDATE: Kelley is good with children and
cats.
