About Maggie Doyle
Maggie's check list for the perfect family:
✅ An experienced dog owner with a keen interest in training
✅ A home where she is safe to be herself.
✅ A home without any little ones or pocket pets
✅ A well matched male dog to be her new BFF
** Before applying for Maggie please carefully consider how you will manage her particular needs. She will only be placed with an experienced dog owner who meets our criteria. **
Mags is 1 year old cattle dog cross who has the tenacity typically associated with working breeds. She is resilient, smart and requires daily training sessions to work her brain. She is an active dog who is happiest when she runs.
Maggie missed out on the critical socialisation period. The result is that she's scared of everything, especially people. Mags tolerates our company but she's never going to be 100% comfortable with humans. Her perfect match will recognise that this is who she is and not try to 'fix her'. Maggie needs an owner to advocate for her when out and about and who can manage her appropriately.
MD requires appropriate introductions to new dogs, but gains much confidence from her canine companions. We would like to re-home her with one other, well matched male dog. Dog parks are not recommended for Maggie.
Maggie enjoys spending time inside and she happily sleeps inside in her crate each night, the crate is very much a safe space for her. Her favourite activities are running, swimming, playing tug and laying in puddles.
Maggie will need a number of visits with her new family before adoption. As such interstate adoptions are not viable unless you are committed to weekly visits. An initial meet and greet may be conducted via video chat.
