Your Cuddy Couch Companion! 

Hi, friends! I’m Maddie, a 3-year-old, 35-pound Terrier mix with the sweetest soul. I had a ruff start in life, rescued from Ellos Son La Razon in Ensenada, Mexico  with hundreds of dogs in terrible conditions. Despite everything I’ve been through, I’m ready for my next chapter – one filled with love, patience, and cozy blankets (lots of them, please)!

I’m on the shy side, but give me time and I’ll start to show you my goofy, playful bursts. I’m happiest curled up on the couch, nestled in a pile of pillows and blankets like the burrito I was born to be. My foster family says I’m a quiet girl – no unnecessary barking here! 

I’m really starting to enjoy walks, especially when I get to stroll alongside my furry foster sisters. I don’t need long hikes or big adventures. Loud noises can still make me a bit nervous. Car rides? Not my thing.  I’d much rather wait for you at home where I can kick back and relax. 

I’m bathroom trained (as long as I get my two walks a day), I don’t have any separation anxiety, and I’ll happily keep myself entertained while you’re out! Crates? I don’t mind them, but I don’t need one either.

I’m dog-friendly and think I’d really thrive with a calm doggy sibling or two to keep showing me the ropes. Cats and kids? Not sure yet, but I’m so gentle it might be worth a try. I just need a family that understands I might get spooked by sudden movements. Sometimes I “pancake” to the ground when I’m unsure, but can be guided out of it with positive reinforcement.

My perfect furever home would be mellow, in a quieter area where I can continue gaining confidence. 

If you’re looking for a laid-back, loving companion who will melt your heart a little more every day, then I’m your girlie! Let’s start this next chapter together – blankets, popcorn, and snuggles included. You can also check me out on my foster’s Insta (I have my own highlight!) @__nalabeans__

My adoption fee is $350 and that includes spaying/neutering, shots, and microchip. If you want to take me home, please fill out the form on the website here: https://theanimalpad.org/adoption-application/
