Description

Maeve is a super sweet girl who would love her forever home.

This beautiful girl is Maeve and she is a super sweet and loving girl. Maeve was adopted from us last year, but she came back into our care recently after her beloved owner passed away unexpectedly. Maeve was and is a much loved girl, who would love to find a new forever home where she can continue to be treated like the princess that she is. Maeve is great with other dogs, and could live with another dog pending meet and greet, she is also happy to be the only dog in the home also. She loves going for long walks in quiet areas, then spending the rest of her day snoozing on the sofa. She is an absolute sweetheart, she meant alot to her mummy, and she means alot to us, so she really deserves the best home possible. Maeve did recently go on a home trial for just over 7 weeks, but sadly despite the families efforts it became clear that urban living was too stressful for Maeve and she was finding walks extremely over stimulating which then also caused lead reactivity, we will happily cover the cost of trainer for any family that adopts her. But she definitely needs a home in a quiet area, with alot less going on around her as the daily over stimulation and stress was starting to affect Maeve and she was beginning to act out of character. Maeve was house trained, but offcourse as she settles into a new environment and routine you may have to allow for a little refreshing. She would ideally love a home where someone is home quite alot, especially as she settles in and adjusts. She can cry at times when alone for too long (particularly the first few nights), but has never been destructive in anyway and does settle once she realises you are coming back. She came back into our care with her cosy bed and blankets and she is often found snuggled up having a nap. She also likes to be tucked in a night time. She is just the most precious soul, with so much love to give. Maeve has been around various kids through out her life, so she can live with dog savy kids pending meet and greet. Age range isnt overly important, the childrens behaviour around dogs is most important as she deserves to be treated with respect. She is also happy to live in a home without kids and be a pampered princess. Maeve has previously been crate trained, but i dont think her mummy used the crate in the year that she had her, so may need a gentle reintroduction if you plan on using one at all. Maeve is a smart girl who knows how to sit and give paw. Her story is a long one, but she is the best girl ever, and we would love to tell you more about her if you have an questions before or during a meet and greet. If anyone deserves to find a loving new home, its this sweet girl. If I didnt have a busy rescue to run, I would keep her myself, she is such a brave and strong soul who has been through alot in her young life, but she has never let it dim her sparkle and love for life.
