Maddy (fka Snowflake) was adopted in January 2016. Her adoptive mom recently sent us a fantastic "pupdate" and here is what she has to say:
"We adopted Maddy (aka Snowflake) about seven years ago. The first week we had her as a foster pup, she jumped up on the pillow behind me on the couch and placed her little paws and head on my shoulder and gave a big sigh. At that point, I knew it was meant to be! Maddy is a very special and incredibly intelligent girl. She knows how to rollover, twirl on her hind legs, ring a bell & clean up her toys by placing them in her toy box (all for treats). If she suspects a treat nearby, she will give you a “side-eye” look. She loves playing fetch and goes crazy over tennis balls. We have a tennis court nearby and she manages to find tennis balls hiding in the grass every walk we take. She watches the tennis players hit the ball back and forth. She’s very athletic and never turns down a game of “fetch the ball”. Her original ARWOB bio mentions she flings toys in the air and she continues to do this. She enjoys car rides with her Mini Pinscher/Chihuahua friend Chuey. We also take her on long road trips where she sleeps like a baby in my arms. She does something to make us laugh everyday and she loves to cuddle with us at bedtime. She is also a great guard dog and will ALWAYS notify us when someone is at the door making us feel very safe. I can’t imagine our family without her! She’s our perfect little Angel."
