About Maddie

Maddie is a 3.5-year-old, 58 lb female Retriever/Shepherd mix who's ready for her next chapter. Rescued from a tough situation, she underwent emergency surgery that not only saved her but also her pups, all of whom have found homes. Now, it's her turn. Currently in South Texas, Maddie is sweet and affectionate, enjoying pampering like gentle belly rubs and ear scratches. She’s arrived nearly house trained, loves walks, and would thrive in a cooler climate for outdoor adventures. Although she’s been around older kids on outings and did well, Maddie's preference is to be the only dog in her home as she shared living spaces with other dogs before and wasn't a fan. At home, she's a real couch potato who would happily nap while her human is away. If you need a low-maintenance companion, Maddie could be the perfect addition to your family.
