🎉 Collie’s Adoption Announcement 🎉
We’re thrilled to share that Collie, our sweet little Maltipoo boy, has found his forever home with Maya and her family! 🏡✨
Collie’s journey began with a trial homestay, where Maya immediately swung into action to help him settle in. She shared her thoughtful plan:
“He won’t be caged the whole day. Every 1-2 hours, we’ll let him out to play with us. He looks a little frightened since it’s a new place for him, so we’ll explore the backyard slowly. I don’t want to stress him too much—he’s scared and shivering, but I’ll let him take his time. He’s already getting comfortable with me and likes to stay under my legs.”
Collie has quickly bonded with Julie, the family’s existing dog, and the kids. Though he didn’t eat from his bowl at first, seeing Julie eat gave him the confidence to follow suit and gobble up his food! By day two, he was settling in beautifully—playing with toys, eating well, and enjoying everyone’s company.
After just one week, Collie’s progress was amazing! 🌟 His toilet training is coming along (from 100:0 to 50:50 now, as Maya puts it 😄), he’s eating and sleeping well, and his bond with Julie has blossomed. The two are inseparable—playing, napping, and even eating together.
Collie is still working on feeling comfortable with a leash—Maya says he turns into a “statue” when it’s on 😅—but he’s getting plenty of exercise playing in the garden with Julie and the kids. His ear infection is improving, and he’s even learned how to climb stairs like a pro!
We’re so grateful to Maya and her family for their patience, love, and dedication to helping Collie adjust to his new home. Here’s to a lifetime of love, laughter, and paw-some adventures together! 🐾❤️
Welcome home, Collie! 🏡🎉
