Story
Maple is a 5-year-old, 95-pound Rhodesian Ridgeback with a very sweet and gentle personality. She is a loving, calm submissive dog. She enjoys being around people, takes treats nicely, knows “sit,” and loves the water (especially the pool!). She is an easy going dog who enjoys companionship and tends to look to the other dog in the house for guidance.
Maple is a friendly, great with kids, and affectionate. She responds well to calm direction and correction. She doesn't respond so well to raised voices, as she thinks it is a game instead of a correction.
She can be curious and a little mischievous, including counter surfing for interesting items like leashes, bags, food, or other tempting objects. However, she responds very well to calm “No” and “Leave it” when redirected. Maple would do best with an adopter who can provide structure, supervision, and continued training to keep her out of trouble.
Maple experiences some urinary incontinence, which started after she was spayed. This occurs in about 20% of female dogs. She is on medication that controls it most of the time. She may have occasional accidents during moments of high excitement or emotion.
Maple was crated trained, however hasn’t used one in a while. She prefers the bed or couch.
Overall, Maple is a big, sweet-heart dog looking for a patient home that will appreciate her gentle nature and help her continue building good habits. She would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for a calm, affectionate Ridgeback with a playful and loving personality.
Maple is a cross-post. Information was provided by the owner and verified with vet records.
