About Maggie

Maggie is a one-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix weighing around 15 lbs and has been spayed. She's a great candidate for our foster-to-adopt program, which allows you to welcome her into your home while finalizing the adoption. This dog brings a medium energy level, needing daily activities like a brisk 60-minute walk as well as short potty breaks. Maggie thrives on social interactions and mental challenges such as puzzle toys and trick training. Though still adjusting, she is likely to adapt well to city living. It's important to ensure she gets plenty of walks, social encounters, and engagement to keep her happy. Maggie is house trained, friendly with dogs, and while we are not certain about her behavior with children, we recommend supervision with kids aged eight and up. She's also open to sharing space with cats, though we’ll learn more about her preferences as she settles in. Currently in a loving foster home, Maggie has been fully vaccinated and microchipped. If you think she could be the perfect fit for your home, don’t hesitate to find out more. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
