Maya is a truly gentle and resilient soul who refuses to hold a grudge against the world despite her challenging past. This social butterfly adores all people and other dogs, greeting every newcomer with a wagging half-tail and an immediate request for chin scritches. If you pause your affection, she'll politely tap you with her paw, ensuring you know she's not quite done being loved! One of her most endearing quirks is 'bed-hopping,' happily moving from one cozy spot to the next to ensure she's tested every comfy bed in the house.
As a Corgi and German Shepherd mix, Maya combines the best of both worlds: the Corgi's charming, intelligent, and sometimes stubborn nature with the German Shepherd's loyalty and trainability. She is highly food and treat motivated, making her easy to engage and a quick learner despite her occasional independent streak. While she bears physical markers of her past, such as a docked tail, scarred shoulder, and missing teeth, she is stable, happy, and has no trouble eating or playing with toys. Her moderate energy level means she enjoys daily walks and playtime but is also content to relax by your side.
Maya is a laid-back girl who would thrive in almost any loving environment where affection is a top priority. Her ideal home will commit to her affordable daily medication for estrogen-related incontinence, which is 95% managed and simple to administer. She's a dream in the house, being housebroken, crate-trained, and excellent on a leash. Her perfect match will enjoy leisurely daily walks and provide a variety of comfy beds for her to hop between, ensuring she always finds her favorite spot for a nap. Maya is ready to fill your home with love and gentle companionship.
