MARIA is one of 2 mama dogs who delivered a litter of puppies each on a family in Hampsteads property.  Both mamas are shy but super sweet and are so bonded.  We would love for them to be adopted together.  They are both defensive around other dogs  but are slowly becoming more comfortable in their surroundings.  

7.8.15 UPDATE!  Maria and her sister Misty are such sweet girls.  They are doing great crate training, housebreaking and they have sure loved living in air conditioning this summer.  We would love for the canine sibs to be adopted together because they are very bonded.  Maria can climb a six foot chain link fence so cannot be left out unattended and a privacy fence would be the best for her.  

8.21.16: MARIA continues to do well in her foster home and is ready for a new family.  We would love for she and her sister to be adopted together.  They play well with other dogs their size in the foster home and have been around cats without an issue.  Sweet, smart, and gentle girl ready for her family.  We do require a fence yard.  Her weight is around 40#.
 A FENCED YARD IS A REQUIREMENT...

12/25/19: MARIA is around 6 years old now and sweet and loving dog.  We would like for her to be adopted with her sister MISTY because they are very bonded.  MARIA needs continued leash work and is getting better going out on leash in public.

02/09/22 MARIA & MISTY her sister are still looking for a committed family.  They are around 8 years old now, and super sweet and enjoy their foster home but longing for a family of their own.
