Meet Maya! Maya is a 5-year-old mixed breed sweetheart who weighs about 46 pounds, although she still needs to gain a little weight. If you’re looking for a loving companion eager to be by your side, Maya could be your perfect match. This low-energy girl enjoys curling up next to her people, soaking up all the pets and attention. Maya is convinced she’s a lap dog—and who could blame her? Snuggling, gentle walks, and enjoying her toys are all on her agenda. House trained and a good leash walker, she thrives in a dog-proof room since crates aren’t her favorite. Maya has a friendly nature, loves everyone she meets, and adores kids, making her ideal for a family home where she can receive plenty of affection. While she gets along well with puppies and her smaller foster brother, she doesn’t enjoy the company of larger dogs. A secure home with a 6-foot fence will be best for her since she’s athletic enough to jump shorter barriers. Maya is spayed and ready for her forever family. Currently heartworm positive, she will need treatment that is manageable and covered by the rescue. Despite this condition, she has so much love to give and is waiting for a safe home where she can flourish. Maya is located in Lemont, IL, and can be seen by appointment once an adoption application is completed. Apply to start the adoption process!
