Hi, I'm Maggie! Despite being around 8 years old, I have the energy of a puppy! I'm a super sweet and SUPER smart girl who's eager to please. I'm extremely food motivated and am a fast learner. I tend to eat my food way too fast, so eating out of a slow feeder is good for me. Right now I only weigh about 47 pounds, but a healthy weight for me should be around 60. Staff are working hard to fatten me up! I love car rides, affection, long walks/jogs, and playing with toys. My best home is one where I'm the only pet, but that's okay because I'll ove you enough to make up for it! I previously lived with kids before, but my best home is one with older kids (teenagers) or none at all. My previous home said I do jump 4ft fences. Come meet me, I promise I'll love you!
