About Maya

Adoption Fee: $100
German Shepherd
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

Maya is an incredibly kind, sweet young dog (3 years old in April) who we rescued. Unfortunately, Maya is not getting along with our other dog, and we feel it's best to find Maya a home where she is the only dog and can receive all the attention and love. My husband is also receiving chemotherapy and handling two frustrated dogs in the midst of his treatment is more than we can manage at the moment. Maya is house-trained (though we keep her in an outdoor kennel when we leave her at the house because she has had a tendency to chew on things when left alone during the day), spayed, UTD on shots, and knows commands such as 'sit', 'stay', 'down', 'shake,' and 'come.' She does great off-leash and LOVES hikes, walks, trips to the beach, or the dog park. Despite her not getting along with our dog, she is fabulous at the dog park and loves playing with other dogs, although she does have that typical intense GSD personality that not all dogs get along with. Maya also has terrible allergies to chicken and grains, so it is necessary to keep her on a strict diet. We feed her the salmon and sweet potato kibble from Costco and she does great. Allergic reactions include diarrhea, skin rashes, itching, and vomiting. We would love to find her an active couple, family, or single person who will take her on many adventures and allow her energetic self to live life to the fullest. She would do best in a home with a fenced yard. She is safe to have around children (probably over the age of 5, as she is large and energetic). She does not do well with cats. She is very protective of her people and will guard a house well, though she has never threatened to bite anyone and is very well socialized with people in general. We are a very adventure couple, so Maya loves car rides and camping, stays close on hikes or when in the woods, and really enjoys the snow and water! She is a registered purebred and when I find her papers I'll make sure those come with her new owner! Maya will come with her bed, a new bag of dog food, and her toys. We would also prefer to do a home visit to ensure that she is moving somewhere safe! We really love this girl and are heartbroken that we must rehome her. But it is the best option for all of us! Feel free to message me for more info or to set up a meet and greet. My husband is currently not working so he is home at most hours of the day to schedule meet ups. I am home in the late afternoons or on weekends!
