She is still waiting! Momma Maia sounds like a wonderful, loving girl who is so ready for a real home. She is waiting for her adopter at Adopt-A-Pet of Shelton Washington . We are hoping today's round of shares finally finds her adopter 🤞🙏🐾
Introducing Momma Maia, a sweet, 9-year-old PitBull/American Staffordshire Terrier mix who is as gentle as she is strong. At 55 pounds, this lovely lady is a true shelter volunteer favorite and an absolute love!
Maia is gentle and loving. She is a true cuddle queen who thrives on affection and companionship. She’s a bit timid with new people, but with calm movements and kind words, she’ll quickly warm up and be your best friend.
She’s quick to learn and is already house-trained with a doggy door. We recently learned she does amazing with free rein in a household, patiently and quietly waiting for her person to return. Maia doesn’t need much to be happy: a yard to play in, a couch to snuggle on, and a person to be her bestie.
People are Maia’s passion, and she has a gift for sensing when someone needs a little extra love. She’s a true companion who will always be there to lend a comforting paw.
Maia has not lived successfully with other dogs and is not fond of cats. She would love to be the Queen of her castle, and a secure, fenced yard is a must to keep her safe (she’s known to escape from unsecured yards). She is kid-friendly (age 13+) . Maia is great with children 13+ who are kind and dog-savvy.
Maia is the perfect companion for someone who can give her the love and attention she craves. With her gentle nature, strong bond with people, and zest for life, she’s ready to make someone’s home complete.
Maia is posted for Adopt-A-Pet in Shelton, WA. For more information on Maia and how to adopt her, please go to the shelter website here:
