Hi there, my name is Maggie, and I am 7-year-old Siberian Husky. I'm quite the beauty with my all-white fur and striking ice-blue eyes! I’m a nice medium size at 45lbs. My fur is all white with just a hint of tan. When I first came into my foster home I went to the doggie beauty salon, aka Groomer. My pretty coat didn't get a good brush out in a long time. I was so patient when the Groomer brushed me. She said I was the best Husky she ever had. Well of course I was! I'm the best at everything! Plus, she made me really pretty!
My Owner brought me to a local shelter when they couldn't take care of me anymore. One day a Treasured Animal Rescue Volunteer was walking through all the dog kennels and stopped at my kennel. She asked the AC worker about me. I left that day because my Rescuer said no pretty dog needs to behind bars. She needs to be in a home. So even though I'm in a foster home that's ok because I'm waiting for my new family to come meet me.
Now, I'm in a foster home I have dogs & cats as my friends, and I do well with them. I am interested in the cats and like to sniff them, but I never chase them. My doggie friends and I play. I'm a good role model for the younger dogs. I like to play with puppies and I can keep up with the younger pups. Yes, even at 7 years old!
I’m pretty good on a leash. When I go on a walk, I don’t pull. If you’re looking for a walking buddy, I would LOVE to take walks with you! I know some basic commands and I really enjoy the company of humans. I just want to be with my humans and get lots of petting. I like to watch TV with my foster Mom. I let her choose the channels. Doesn't matter with me what show just as long as she rubs my belly! I get really comfy on the couch and I don't sit very ladylike but hey, gals got to get comfy!
I am very good with kids. I've been around kids and I like when they pet me. I love when anyone pets me. I act silly. I roll over on my back for belly rubs. I take treats very well from everyone. I SIT like a good girl and wait for my yummy treat. Sometimes, I'm picky on my treats.
My foster home has a fenced yard, and some areas are 4' and 6'. I don't try to jump over the fence. Why would I even try to jump a fence when I have it so good here? But there's notes in my intake paperwork that my original owner had me on a tie out and I did escape. Can you image a Husky escaping a yard? Maybe my next home will have a fenced yard. I'm a quiet girl. The only time I make any noise is when I have to alert you, I have to go do my business. First, I will do little circles around the door or in front of you and if that doesn't catch your attention then I will do a little woo woo. That's my signal "I gotta go!". This Lady is a true Lady!
More on my little circles. My foster Mom calls them my ballerina dances. When I get happy (which is a lot) I do my little circle dances. It looks like I'm doing pirouettes - like a Ballerina. But I don't have any ballerina slippers. That would be silly. But maybe with all my pirouettes I can find a spot in the Joffrey Ballet Theater. That would be funny!
Once a week I go to doggie daycare so I can meet new friends. They first put me in the oldie section. How dare they!! 7 is the new young. The doggie care place realized I've got some spunk so I played with the young in's all day. I even got a new boyfriend. He's a Husky just like me but just a different color.
If you're looking for a middle-aged Lady who is well past her crazy puppy stage and yet has great energy and LOTs of love to give, then look no further!

Maggie
