https://youtube.com/shorts/P_L0wCYkMAI?feature=share Maize officially needs a home! But who wants to adopt an evil Bitch? She's actually the best dog, and the perfect loyal companion. Just sounds terrible on paper. Maize Gender: Female Age: 2 Weight: 65 Lbs. Breed: 100% Pittie through and through Spayed: Yes Vaccinated: Yes Microchipped: Yes Foster Location: Lake County, Ca. Any applications, please we're begging! Cats: Don't know- but haven't you seen Sylvester the Cat and Tom and Jerry? That's a no! Home Recommendation: Single Family. Fenced yard. She's calm, cool and collected but, needs things to go her way, she'll need everything laid out for her, with lots of structure. Or you better be be able to negotiate easily with some chicken nuggets. Kids: No children. But how tough are your kids? She'll be fine with kids who have the temperament of Spartacus and the discipline of Ghandi. In order to establish peace in your home, you'll need an iron clad kid who knows the drill otherwise Maize will rule the kids; she'll take over as helicopter parent to your kid and it won't end there! Let's just say no kiddos! Maize has no fear and doesn't mind running the household and being a jerk when she feels like it. It's our job as humans to show her the way and it's essential that we take our job super seriously. We pay the rent not Maize! Once our girl knows what is expected of her, she's a rule follower so she will be compliant as long as you're the pack leader. She's an athletic couch potato, she's happy snoozing all darn day but she's stealthy and you can bet your bottom dollar she will get to the front door before you do and Oh boy will she give that UPS guy a run for his money. Easy solution, baby gate x 3��%A4� Maize doesn't know how to play. She's an introvert. On a magical unicorn day day, the stars align and she does the play blow, gives you her paw and smiles. It's nothing short of heart melting! Have you ever had that friend that reads people really well? Maize runs on vibes, if you're vibe doesn't jive with hers, she'll let you know. She'll use her mean girl glare to put you in check. If you show up with Tri tip or Butter Basted Chicken Breast - green light, you're good to go! Food is her answer! Crate Trained: Yes! Maize loves her crate, it's like her very own cozy den.... and for the first few days she'd like you to give her space while she determines when you can join her circle of trust. Extra points for NY Strip Steak medium rare. Maize is fine flying solo while you work. She will find lots of cozy places to lounge, snooze and burrow into. She's a house -dog for sure. Potty Trained: 100%! But if it's cold outside think again. Maize prefers to be under at least 15 blankets in case of frost bite in July! Like I said, our girl is the definition of a house dog. She will only go out when you make her. Dogs: At this time, we're listing her as an only dog. Dog intros suck. Little miss Maize is a Bitch! She doesn't care one bit about other canines, just don't let anyone get in her personal space or her baby pool! Other dogs can't handle the queen, they cower at her feet. She'll tell you, plain and clear to back off. She'll be stiff as a board and she won't put up with any funny business. Maize has boundaries, if you stay in your lane, she'll stay in hers. She listens to commands, follows directions and aims to please. Leash Manners: Forget it. Maize is constantly checking out the scene. You'd think she was a hound, her nose points her to where she wants to go. She will pull you to your destination. Silver lining you'll get a fabulous arm work out. Maize is an old soul. Her life hasn't been all butterflies and roses. She's just looking for her person to trust, guide and learn from. Maize is looking for a committed relationship - her one true love. Maize isn't looking for someone who just wants a dog, she's looking for someone to take this process seriously and put the work in! Remember, you get what you put in! With a beautiful face and intelligent personality like Maize's we think she will still find her furever home, even if it takes longer than we thought. Maize is super treat motivated and with continued training and consistency, she will be well on her way to dream dog. Overall, Maize is a great dog that is sweet, happy, and isn't overly energetic. She doesn't require mass amounts of exercise. She is more than happy to Netflix and chill. She is loyal, listens well, is treat motivated. mendoshelterpets.org 530-570-4538
