Maggie
was surrendered to Furever After Small Dog Rescue by her owners at
the age of two because she was not a good fit for their lifestyle.
She was not receiving the time and attention that she needed and she
was being confined to a crate for extended periods of time. We
agreed to accept Maggie into our care in order to ensure that her
next home would be a permanent one and that she would be spayed
prior to adoption. Miniature Dachshunds are currently a
favorite choice of puppy millers and backyard breeders and
we didn't want
Maggie to fall prey to an unscrupulous breeder.
When Maggie came into our
care, she was suffering from several anxiety related behavior
issues, including separation anxiety. After spending some time
in a loving foster home, Maggie became more confident, her anxiety
diminished and most of
her behavior issues resolved. While in our care, Maggie was
spayed, tattooed, micro-chipped, updated on her vaccinations and her
teeth were buffed and polished.
Maggie was adopted by a
wonderful young couple in Vancouver who love her dearly.
Maggie's mom works mostly from home and she is able to take Maggie
with her almost everywhere she goes.
***An
update from Maggie’s
family:
"Maggie won 1st prize in the Best Trick Contest at the 16th Annual
Dachshund Picnic & Race!!! Her trick is called 'Maggie in the
Baggie' - she runs and leaps into her bag which I use to take her
to my office and shopping. The crowd loved it and shouted for an
encore performance!
We are
so proud of her! ;-) "
