Story
Meet Maxine!Maxine is a 1½-year-old Papillon with an adorable face, a fluffy coat, and enough personality to keep you smiling every day. Weighing just 8 pounds, she`s the perfect little companion for someone looking for a loyal best friend with just the right amount of playful energy.When you first meet Maxine, she can be a little timid. She prefers to take a moment to get her bearings, but with a little patience and gentle encouragement, her sweet personality quickly shines through. Once she feels comfortable, she`s all about fun, snuggles, and spending time with her favorite person.This petite girl loves chasing a ball, zooming around the yard, and then settling down for a well-earned cuddle. Whether she`s playing outside or curling up beside you on the couch, Maxine is happiest when she`s with her people.She`s house trained, crate trained, and sleeps quietly through the night in her crate. She also enjoys napping there during the day, making her an easy houseguest and a wonderful addition to just about any home.Being a Papillon, Maxine does have the breed`s signature high-pitched bark, but she`s isn`t an excessive barker. She`ll let you know when something catches her attention, then settles back down without making a fuss.Based on information from her previous owner, Maxine would do best in a female-only home. We don`t know everything about her past, but respecting that recommendation will help set her up for the happiest, most successful future.At just 8 pounds, Maxine is small enough for apartment living but would also love a home with a yard where she can chase a ball and stretch her little legs.If you`re looking for a tiny companion with a playful spirit, a loving heart, and endless devotion, Maxine is ready to find the woman she`ll happily call her forever person.To set up a meet and greet or inquire about a dog, please first fill out an application at https://savinghoperescue.org/adopt.
