Daisy Mae

Daisy Mae is a beautiful, 2-year-old, 35lb spayed female pittie mix who has overcome a difficult start in life. Rescued from a situation of abuse and neglect, she weighed only 18 lbs at six months old. It took time for her to learn that gentle hands could mean love, not harm. Today, Daisy Mae is a happy, affectionate, and playful girl ready to find a family who will give her the safety and devotion she deserves. She adores kids of all ages and is gentle and loving with them. Daisy Mae has a moderate activity level; she enjoys walks, playtime, and exploring, but she also knows how to settle down and relax. She's great on leash, fully house-trained, and crate-trained, sleeping soundly through the night. Daisy Mae is outgoing, smart, and affectionate. She loves car rides, heavy chew toys, and being near her people. When meeting strangers, she may act shy at first, but she warms up quickly and loves attention once she feels secure. Daisy Mae is the definition of resilience. After everything she's endured, she's blossomed into a loving, loyal companion who still greets every day with joy and trust. She's looking for a home that understands her past, provides gentle structure, and celebrates the happy, goofy, affectionate girl she's become.

Ideal Home

Daisy Mae absolutely adores kids of all ages and is gentle and loving with them. She doesn't need another dog in the home to be happy and would do wonderfully as an only pet. If placed with another dog, slow introductions are essential, and she'd do best with a calm, confident companion who can handle her enthusiasm. She benefits from slow introductions with other dogs, and does best with balanced or confident dogs who can handle her enthusiasm. She eats and enjoys treats in her crate to help her feel safe, and is happiest when given space for mealtime and a calm environment where she can unwind.

Ongoing Health

Daisy Mae is in great shape and continues to thrive in foster care. She does have slightly runny eyes, which her foster suspects are due to environmental allergies that flare up during rainy times of the year. It doesn't require any treatment beyond occasional gentle cleaning and awareness of seasonal changes.

Training & Support

Daisy Mae is great on leash, fully house-trained, and crate-trained. She may bark at other dogs walking by when she's eating, so she needs a calm environment for mealtime.
