About Maxine

Maxine is a one-year-old heeler mix who has recently come into her own after raising her first litter of pups. With her lively spirit, she enjoys the occasional zoomies, especially at the neighborhood park. At about 35 pounds, she is spayed and vaccinated, making her a healthy companion. This sweet girl gets along well with kids and other dogs, although her little foster brother sometimes finds her playful spirit a bit much. She's good on a leash and knows how to relax during long car rides. While she's making progress with her recall and kennel training, she still has some puppy-like habits, such as chewing shoes and playfully nibbling on loved ones. These behaviors are typical for her breed and can be managed with gentle guidance. Maxine's short, smooth coat requires minimal care, and she would be a great addition to any active family. Just remember, she shouldn't be left alone for long stretches. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
