At 20 lbs, she is the epitome of a devoted companion who prefers to bask in the comfort of her home rather than run outside. Don’t let her senior status fool you; Maggie has plenty of energy that comes out during mealtime, with an endearing little “happy dance” that will surely bring a smile to your face. She’s house-trained and can be left loose at home, although she’s not fond of crates and may bark if confined. While she hasn't been tested with children, her calm, gentle demeanor suggests she would do well with respectful, dog-savvy kids. Maggie is great with other dogs, particularly those that match her low-energy vibe. She’s hard of hearing but has adapted well with hand signals in her foster home. Maggie's ideal day involves following her person from room to room, lounging on the couch, and enjoying occasional short walks around the neighborhood.
