My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Maddie is looking for their forever home!

WHAT MY FOSTER SAYS: Maddie is a calm, sweetheart with a cute "pouty" bottom lip and big, golden eyes. She can be a little timid meeting new people but warms up quickly. Maddie's hidden talent is that she could eat non stop and still be skinny - people often think she is larger than she is, but she's solidly a medium sized pup at around 46 lbs. She also is a cute grunter, snorter and she has earned the nickname "lil piggy" because of her noises. So far Maddie has done well with every dog she has met and lives with two large furry foster siblings. Even dogs that don't seemed to be impressed with her, she gets the hint and usually leaves them alone. Alternatively, she isn't a fan of pushy dogs but leaves them alone without incident. Maddie's daytime routine currently consists of eating breakfast and some morning activity (wrestling with her Corso bro, sniffari, or a walk) and then she is perfectly content napping. She usually spends a few hours napping next to her foster mom's desk during the work day. She would make a great office pet as she stays quiet during Zoom meetings and other calls. Maddie has not been tested with cats but she has seemed interested in chasing squirrels & rabbits so she may need a cat-free home or thoughtful, slow integration with a very dog-savvy cat.

Overall, Maddie is a lovely, medium energy dog that is affectionate with her people but can also settle nearby. An easy-going pup, Maddie seems okay with most things. She's a confident, curious and friendly little girl that will make a great addition to a variety of different homes and lifestyles.

ATTRIBUTES: Maddie does well with dogs.

Laila's Legacy Animal Rescue does not guarantee that any dog is housebroken nor crate trained. We strive to provide accurate information on all of our animals however, we are unable to guarantee an animal's breed, size, health, behavior, temperament, or any other conditions. Our adoption fees are not inclusive of all vetting / medical care, food, supplies and/or training costs. Since we rely on donations to compensate for those deficits we are unable to reduce or refund this fee.

More about this rescue

Laila's Legacy missions is to ensure every homeless dog - including those with behavioral or physical challenges - that comes through our doors has a chance at a better life while educating the public on breed bias, individualistic training, and the importance of spay-neuter to lower the impact of returned and abandoned animals in shelters.
