Meet Maizie: A Gentle Soul Looking for Her Safe HavenHi there! My name is Maizie, and I’m a one-year-old Retriever/German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love just waiting for the right person to unlock it.I’ll be honest—the big, wide world can feel a little overwhelming to a girl like me. I’m what my friends here call a `sensitive soul.` I might hide behind a wagging tail at first, but beneath my shy exterior is a devoted companion who is simply looking for a place to belong.What Makes Me Special:A Loyal Shadow: Once I know I’m safe and loved, I will be your most faithful friend, sticking by your side through every quiet moment.A Gentle Nature: I find joy in the soft things—gentle head scratches, a calm environment, and the sound of a kind voice.Potential to Blossom: I’m like a flower that just needs a little bit of patience and sunshine to truly bloom.My Perfect Home:Because I’m easily startled by loud noises and fast movements, I’m looking for a peaceful `retirement-speed` lifestyle. I’ve decided that I want to be the only star of the show, so I’m looking for a home where there are no other dogs or cats—just more room for me to love you!If you have a quiet home and a patient heart, I promise to reward you with a lifetime of devotion. Will you be the one to help me find my courage?

Story
Reese is a one-year-old pit bull with a heart as big as his energy! This handsome boy is super energetic, smart, playful, vocal, and loving. He bursts with puppy-like enthusiasm at first, but once he’s gotten that energy out, he settles into a calm, cuddly sweetheart who just wants to be close to you.Reese adores affection — he’s a huge cuddle bug who loves being held and showered with love. His ideal home would be with someone who enjoys an active lifestyle — think hiking trails, beach adventures, or long walks exploring the world together.Because of his excitement and playfulness, He’s fantastic with other dogs and loves to play — though he can get a bit vocal! Don’t let his playful growls fool you; he’s not aggressive, just full of personality and enthusiasm. Reese’s story is truly one of hope. He was heartbreakingly set to be euthanized, but this special boy was given a second chance — and he’s making the most of it. Now, he’s ready for the forever family who will understand that he was failed by humans once, but he still believes in love and loyalty. If you’re looking for an affectionate, adventurous companion who will fill your days with joy and your heart with love, Reese is your guy.Let’s help Reese find the forever home he deserves.
