About Maia
Hello there, my name is Maia and I am looking for my lifelong friend...
I am a Lhasa Apso and I am 10 years and 10 months old.............
My foster mum says I am one of the calmest, gentlest dog she has fostered, and I have to admit I just love life, I love people, l love other dogs, I love everyone but on my time and speed (slow). I also love a good play with the other dogs in the home but when I’m ready to stop I do!
I came into care about 7 months ago and the rescue took such good care of me – I was in a pretty bad way with
* Grade 4 dental,
* Grade 2 heart murmur,
* Grade 1 luxating patellas both sides,
* I had horrific ear infections and a
* skin infection,
* I also had an eye issue (dry eye on left eye, right is normal)
– the rescue took me to this nice Vet man and got me fixed up as much as they could and I am like a new dog now – I came in pretty messy but I have such a zest for life now.
My foster family have said that I’m an awesome cuddle buddy who is happy to chill. I do prefer to have company with either my foster humans or foster fur brother. They have called me their little shadow once or twice. My dream home would be with someone who either works from home or doesn't work and is a home body.
I am dog friendly (actually my mum says I am the boss of all the other foster dogs that come and go in the home) I love to meet new dogs and then tell them what they can and can’t do at the home – mum says appreciates that – I am sure that’s what she mumbles.
I would like another dog as company as I do like to show the young ones from time to time how to play and wrestle (from a Maltese to a French mastiff) however I don’t want a dog that is going to be my face all the time.
I am fine with cats and child friendly however as I’m now getting to the mature stage in life I would prefer a home that doesn’t have kids under the age of 8 living there – simply just cause I like the peace and quiet of a home and to be the boss
I am very much an inside dog – snoozing on the couch and sleeping on my human’s bed and I would very much like this to continue.
I am toilet trained and will let you know when I want to go outside but I'm also happy to use a dog door.
I have a coat that does require grooming. I have already had a couple of professional grooms which didn’t faze me at all. The groomer did tell my foster mum that I need to continue going to a groomer so that my coat stays looking good & not matted so please keep this in mind when applying as it’s an ongoing expense.
If you think you could make me part of your family & are interested in applying to adopt me, please send thru an adoption application
** Please note applications will close Thursday 12th May 2022 at 5.30pm

Adoption details
Paw Prints Canine Rescue is a non for profit dog rescue located in Southeast Queensland.
All our dogs leave our care with full vet work (up-to-date vaccinated, microchipped, desexed, heart worm and intestinal wormed and flea treated).
Please note - They will not leave for their new homes until they are 12 weeks of age and have been desexed, micro-chipped and vaccinated up to date.
Please note - we are not a pound or have kennels - all our dogs stay in foster carers homes and therefore dogs are not able to be simply viewed - only approved applicants will meet the dogs.
Please Note: We do not hold any animals so please only apply if you are ready to adopt now
Please note - We don't take calls on adoption enquiries - an application must be completed
We can also be found at https://www.facebook.com/pawprintscanine/
Complete the following adoption enquiry link
https://goo.gl/forms/PqpkCcE89ikDR2Lw1
Once an adoption enquiry is completed our admin team will assess the application and if successful we will arrange for a meet and greet to be completed. We may also request photos of your yard for consideration of your application. Please note that we will do no more than 3 meet and greets per dog.
Approved applicants will be contacted to arrange a time for a meet & greet via email. You must bring your current dog along to the meeting if you are meeting another dog/puppy, this is to ensure they get along before commencing adoption - proof of your dogs up-to-date vaccination is required before any meet and greet is arranged.
Our adoption fee must be cleared in our bank account before any animal is available for pick up. Please note we bank with ANZ - any other bank may take 48 hours to process the monies.
Paw Prints Canine Rescue has a 10 day trial period – this basically means that if for any reason the adoption does not work out and the dog needs to be returned to us, the adoption fee minus an admin fee (minimum is $100) will be returned to the adoptees via bank transfer within 7 working days.
Please note that if an interstate adoption needs to be returned or regional adoption all transport cost with be paid by the adopter.
Please also note while this can be a very exciting time for everyone, it can also be an overwhelming time for dogs and we ask that you do try and allow your new family member to settle in their new home and adjust
INTERSTATE ADOPTIONS **
Any transport costs are to be paid by the adopting family, however we can assist you in helping with transport to airports etc.
** Please note some of our dogs are not available for interstate adoption
AFTER THE TRIAL PERIOD
After the 10 day trial period is completed Paw Prints Canine will send out all relevant paperwork for your new furbaby via email including the transfer of microchip form.
