Maxine is such a sweet dog. She was terrified at the shelter and was just shaking. When she first got here, she just shook and cowered. Now she wags her tail, is mostly happy, and even does a little food dance when she sees her food coming. She LOVES to eat. She should be separated to eat for a while. We have not seen any aggression, but having lived on her own, she will not want to share.  

She will be the most loyal dog once she understands, through positive reinforcement, that she is safe and loved. She loves Turkey!!  She has a steel bladder and hasn't had one accident. She is fearful of almost everything new, until she learns and is shown it is ok. She has shown NO signs of fear aggression.

She will need someone PATIENT, who lets her come around at her own time. She is very smart, and certainly wants to please. She is the perfect dog in many ways.  She is terrified of raised voices or loud noises. Her ideal home would be a mellow house with one other dog or no dogs. Or older, mellow dogs. Nothing too active, or too loud. She is quiet and we haven't heard her bark once.
