Meet Maggie

Hi! My name is Maggie and I am looking for a forever home. Whoever said small dogs don't end up in the shelter, well I'm proof they do as I was picked up as a stray by animal control and taken to one, and let me tell you they are pretty scary places. Unfortunately, when no one came to claim me and my stray hold was up, I was getting passed over as I surely didn't look (or smell) my best as my coat was all matted from being on my own for so long. Fortunately, BCAA heard about me and said they would help me ... yeah! The vet thinks I'm only about 18mos old and weigh just a tad under 13lbs. The first thing I got upon arriving at my foster's was a groom where I had to be mostly all shaved down, but boy do I feel and look so much better! With that out of the way, my personality has really come out and my foster parents says I'm just a super happy little girl. I have gotten along with the other small dogs I have met although I really prefer the most to be with you. I have done really well in my crate without any accidents and which I have shared with my friend Molly without any issues and we love to wrestle and play; we also eat side by side with no problem as we both love our food so finish about the same time. I was a little hesitant at first about that thing called a leash but with a little practice I'm getting much better as it means I get to be with you.
