About Lizzie
🌟 Meet Lizzie – A Shy but Loving Soul Ready for Her Forever Home 🌟
Lizzie is a sweet and gentle girl who’s been on an incredible journey of building confidence and trust. This Mini American Shepherd while still has some challenges, watching her come out of her shell has been nothing short of rewarding. Lizzie is ready to find her perfect forever home – one that understands her quirks and will love her for who she is.
🐾 What Makes Lizzie Special:
- Devoted Companion: Lizzie will absolutely adore her “person” and loves to follow them around the yard, keeping them company while staying close.
- Charming Personality: Her beautiful eyes and big smile will light up your days when she’s feeling happy.
- Gentle and Loving: She enjoys pats, belly rubs, and scratches behind the ears – she’s a soft, sweet girl who loves quiet affection.
- Great with Other Dogs: Lizzie thrives in the company of other dogs and would love to have a brother or sister to help her feel confident in her new home.
- Toilet Trained: While she’s toilet trained, an occasional accident might happen, so patience and understanding will go a long way.
🐕 Lizzie’s Ideal Home:
- Calm and Quiet Environment: Lizzie is still learning to trust the world, so a peaceful home without young children or lots of visitors would suit her best.
- Another Dog for Confidence: Having a canine sibling is essential for Lizzie. Other dogs help her feel safe and give her the confidence to explore.
- Patient and Loving Family: Lizzie needs a family who understands that she may never be the "typical" dog. With gentle training and reassurance, she’ll continue to grow, but she’ll need time to adjust.
- Space to Relax: Lizzie loves to sit quietly in a cozy corner or close to her person, keeping an eye on everything. A secure yard and a quiet couch will be her sanctuary.
- No Crowds or Kids: Lizzie finds crowds overwhelming and may become nervous or nippy in busy environments. A calm, steady household is her safe haven.
- Lizzie is not suitable for apartment living, she requires a yard.
💖 A Work in Progress with Endless Potential:
Lizzie has come so far already, building confidence and learning to trust. While bikes, cars, and meeting new people still make her nervous, she’s growing braver every day. It’s been a joy to see her bloom, and with the right family, her progress will continue.
If you’re ready to open your heart to this shy but loving girl and give her the safe, patient, and understanding home she deserves, Lizzie will reward you with loyalty and love like no other.

For Dogs: https://form.jotform.co/80677377750872
Please use these links rather than the 'Enquire' button on the pet's PetRescue profile to streamline your enquiry.
Our foster carer will contact you when we receive your application to arrange a time for you to meet with their foster pet.
We want your adoption through Maggie's to be a good experience so we will occasionally suggest a different cat or dog that may suit your situation better and the needs of the individual pet.
All our pets leave for their new homes on a two-week trial. At the end of the trial, we will transfer the microchip into your name and provide you with the pets vet certificates. Once you receive the Certificate of Identification from council, your adoption will be complete.
Please consider, that a Maggie's Pet is a pet for Life, before adopting.
