Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Mae J 6839
Mae J is an incredibly intelligent pup. The photographer set up a diabolical test as he placed a hotdog on the top of the back of a people friendly bench. The slippery metal seat was not purposely canine unfriendly, but it served that function quite well. Mae J tried numerous times to retrieve the treat by stretching up with her front feet on the seat but couldn’t quite reach the tantalizing delicacy. It was frustrating for her as she came within 1 inch of her quest, but she never gave up. It was awe inspiring to watch her focused thought process as she debated the feasibly of different positions to attempt the hotdog sequester. After assuming many positions…. frontal assault, angled sortie, backside surprise and many combinations of these maneuvers, Mae J finally solved the puzzle as she grasped both sides of the bench which enabled her to pull into a position where she delightfully accomplished her mission. Mae J’s resolve and tenacity are astoundingly innate and wonderfully validated. She is fittingly endowed with a vertical white stripe on her face that mirrors the governing meridian energy pathway in both humans and canines.
Mae J is friendly, quiet and when in contact with other canines, assumes the role of school marm as she lovingly teaches them to better their social skills. Mae J received her name in honor of Mae Jemison, a woman who was a physician, an engineer and an astronaut who traveled on the space shuttle Endeavor. Mae J hopes for a home with a human who appreciates living with a canine who will respond to love, affection, and intellectual stimulation.

Our adoption fee is $70 which covers all the basic shots and worming medications appropriate for the age of the animal as well as the required spaying or neutering. If the animal is too young to be neutered, a voucher is presented to the adopter to cover the process at a participating vet. Rabies shots are not included. We have an application process in which we ask basic questions to insure that you and the chosen pet are a good match for each other. We do require a vet reference. If you have been arrested and convicted of animal abuse or neglect, you will not be considered for adoption. If you do not own your home, a letter from the landlord giving permission to have a pet is required. Local ordinances regarding maximum numbers of pets shall be observed. All other household pets must be spayed or neutered. All pets are adopted "as is." Should the pet not work out after you take it home, we ask that you return the animal to us for re-homing. We want each animal to find a loving forever home and reserve the right to refuse any application should the individual needs of the chosen animal not be in that dog's best interest. Contact our office for inquiries and applications.
