Maple is a 11⁄2-year-old, female, Miniature Schnauzer with a gentle soul and a heart that's just waiting to feel safe and loved. She may be a little shy when you first meet her, but beneath that timid exterior is a sweet, loyal companion who will blossom in the right home. Maple is looking for a calm, patient adopter who understands that trust takes time. She would do best in a quiet household where she can settle in at her own pace. Because of her sensitive nature, Maple is seeking a home without small children. Once she feels secure, Maple shows her affectionate side in the sweetest ways—soft tail wags, curious glances, and staying close to the person she trusts. With consistency, kindness, and reassurance, she has so much potential to grow into a devoted and loving companion. If you have a peaceful home and the patience to help a shy pup come out of her shell, Maple could be the perfect addition to your life. She's ready to find her forever home—could it be with you?
