Scheduled Adoption Events

Maggie (fka Navy) was adopted from ARWOB in May 2022.  We are delighted to receive this wonderful "pupdate" about Maggie from her adoptive mom:

"Navy (we renamed her Maggie) has been such a joy. She is the best dog I have ever had - so good with other dogs and people, so non-reactive, doesn't jump or bark. I frequently use her with kids who are scared of dogs because she will lie quietly while they stroke her ears, feed her treats, or even give her hugs. I've had multiple people say "I'd get a dog if I'd know it would have her personality!" We think her street smarts from being a street dog have caused her to develop super good social skills. Other dogs will be on leash, lunging and reactive towards her, and she just looks at them calmly. She plays with big dogs and will set limits if they get too rough. She has mastered a high speed barrel roll that is hilarious. She also does a 4 legged hop into the bushes to catch geckos that is adorable. (So far, we've been unable to get a pic of those moves.) She loves to play (OB Dog Beach, Coronado Dog Beach, Fiesta Island) and will get happy zoomies as soon as she hits the sand. She is a sensitive soul - the first time we cleaned her ears she wouldn't look at us for two days, but as she is learning to trust us she is coming out of her shell and becoming more goofy and silly. Every day I give thanks that we adopted her because she is such a source of joy for me. She is so smart and learns new commands in just a couple of trials and is starting to play fetch. She doesn't beg, jump, or whine. We are starting an obedience class this week just for the fun of it. Once I even brought her into the office with me and she was a champ with my patients. All my best days start when we get up early and walk around Fiesta Island."
