Maxine (On Trial 4/5/13)

Maxine was recently left all alone in the world when her elderly owner passed away. We believe she has the unusual breeding of a whippet crossed with a Jack Russell, and she’s around 6 years old. She’s very sweet and devoted, loves to be cuddled and to snuggle up on the couch with you, or on your bed if you’ll let her. She is only a small dog, but with long legs, and has an easy-care coat. She loves to go for walks and is quite easy to lead, and travels well in the car.

Maxine is living with a number of other dogs at her foster carer’s house, and generally mixes well, but she does get a little jealous from time to time. Her behaviour is not troublesome, but she would probably be happiest in a home where she was the only dog, or maybe with one other. She would be an ideal companion for an elderly person or couple.
