Current Location: Midlothian, VA Hello! My name is Jester! I'm coming to OPH on 12/5. Please check back soon for updates on my personality, and to see adorable new photos. I'm searching for... * someone who won't leave me home alone for more than 4 hrs, at least not until I am older. The older I am the more I can stay home alone. I just don't want you to get mad at me if I have accidents or chew things I'm not supposed to when you leave me for too long. I'm a puppy, so I get bored quick and when I'm bored I could get in trouble. * I am looking for my forever home, not my for right now home. So as I get bigger I need someone to teach me how to be the best dog I can be. I am young and still learning. You may want to teach me some new tricks like sit, stay, etc. Professional training will help me bond with you. That sounds like fun! * I saved the most important for last. I am hoping my new mom or dad will snuggle with me, play with me and love me forever and ever! I'm making my way north in search of my new family. Is that with you? If so apply today because this cuteness won’t be around for long!

Story
Meet Maggie. She is an eleven year old, four point five pound mix of Yorkshire Terrier and Poodle with a tender heart and a tiny frame. She is gentle, affectionate, and happy to be wherever her person is. She struggles with stairs because of her size, but she does not mind being picked up and carried. She enjoys spending time in your lap, but she never demands it. If you choose not to lift her up, she settles at your feet with contentment. Maggie arrived in rescue after her owner passed away. She has lived her life beside Madison, though they are not bonded. She gets along beautifully with other dogs and she enjoys quiet routines. She wants a safe, loving place where she can relax and feel secure. Maggie is an easy companion. She is tiny, sweet, and grateful for gentle care. She will thrive in a calm retirement home with soft beds, soft voices, and a person who cherishes small dogs with big hearts. I’m looking for my forever family! Is that with you? If so please click “apply for adoption” or submit an application through the Adopt tab. Let’s get our family started!
