About Maddie

Maddie Fortune is a lovely six-year-old Australian Cattle Dog/Blue Heeler, weighing about 52 pounds. She’s experienced a significant change in her life after her owner moved into a nursing facility, resulting in the loss of her home along with her best friend, Freckles. Luckily, a compassionate rescue is helping her find the forever home she truly deserves. Maddie has a sweet and gentle disposition. She’s learning to enjoy walks on a leash, which is new for her since she previously relished the freedom of a large fenced yard. While she appreciates outdoor strolls, Maddie thrives in quieter settings over bustling environments. A home with a securely fenced yard would be ideal for her as she continues to build her confidence. She gets along well with other dogs and is calm and well-mannered indoors, hardly ever barking. Maddie has shown great behavior around children in her previous family environment. However, she has not been around cats, so a feline-free household would suit her best. Maddie is house trained, crate trained, and heartworm negative. She is spayed, microchipped, healthy, and current on all vaccinations. If you're looking for a loyal and gentle companion who will quietly steal your heart, Maddie could be the perfect match. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
