About Madison
Madison is a 7-year-old Doberman with European heritage and a lively mind to match her good looks. She’s sharp, sometimes comically clever—think door opening, food-raiding, and an unusual knack for mischief when first arriving in foster care. Since then, with structured training and positive reinforcement, she’s picked up solid house manners and is eager to please, thriving when given both mental and physical work. An adopter who enjoys an athletic routine will love Madison—she clocks 4–5 miles of walks daily, but settles in quietly for the afternoon once she’s had her exercise. Madison is content to nap or relax while her person works, so she doesn’t create constant demands, just benefits from consistent structure. She handles living well in a condo or a home with a small yard, provided her exercise needs are met. Her prey drive is strong, so a house without cats or small animals is key. She’s housebroken, crate trained, and does best crated if left alone, as she occasionally indulges in “redecorating” bedding. Madison is on a prescription high-fiber diet that keeps her thriving after some early health mysteries—and she’s ready to join a home that enjoys working with a bright, devoted companion. You’ll get loyalty, affection, and more laughs than you expect with this deeply bonded, impressive dog. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
