03/15/2016 WEB MEMO
A volunteer writes: Maya seems like such a wonderful, well-rounded gal! She is middle-aged and her energy level seems ideal. If she’s sprawled out on her bed when I approach her cage, she lets out a little “woof” before wiggling her way to the front. She has the sweetest amber eyes and the best smile. She is easy on leash, seems housebroken, eagerly “sits” for treats and takes them gently. Her tail steadily wags throughout our walk and cuddle break. In her previous home she loved to play with stuffed toys, and when I toss her a squeaky ball she holds it in her mouth like an egg and gently squeezes it as she prances around, creating her own squeaky soundtrack! She’ll easily let me take it from her to play fetch, and her previous owner reports no guarding issues. They also tell us she played gently with a 7 year old child, is nervous during thunderstorms, and is well-behaved when left alone. Maya previously lived harmoniously with another dog and she has been a star during playgroups since her arrival at the care center. She could be the star of your home, come meet her at Brooklyn ACC!
