Hello! My name is Maggie and I am a loveable lady. I do enjoy a snuggle with my foster mom and to carry around my favorite stuffed toy. I get along well with my foster brother (another Silky), but really love to be with my foster humans more.
As a silky terrier mix, my coat does require a bit of maintenance, but I don’t mind the brushing or showers one bit – and I look so cute with a bow in my hair!
I was in the shelter for a while and am working to build back trust, but I am making great progress. I look forward to making your acquaintance!
If you are interested in Maggie, consider letting us know by filling out a (no obligation) adoption application (http://www.pgspca.org/adopt/online-adoption-application/).
Maggie is NOT expecting to attend the next adoption show,
July 22nd at the Bowie PetSmart,
although there's always a possibility that plans will need to change at the last minute.
NOTE: We are an all-volunteer group and do not operate a shelter. All of
our animals are in foster homes. Due to our requirement for a home
visit, we generally only place animals within an hour's drive of
Washington, DC. Questions can be directed to pgspcavol@gmail.com.
