About Miss Ma`am

Meet Miss Ma’am, the "Stitch" (from Lilo & Stitch) of the dog world! She may start off a bit judgmental of strangers, but once she decides you’re part of her "Ohana," she’ll never leave your side. She’s a world-class cuddler who will follow you from room to room just to ensure you're never lonely. She takes a moment to warm up to new faces, but she flips the "sweetheart switch" fast once she feels safe. Miss Ma’am is perfectly content in her crate and can handle the 9-to-5 life home alone for up to 8 hours. She’ll do anything for peanut butter or a Milkbone, though she prefers pets and scratches above all else. Expect a hilarious burst of energy every evening before she settles in for a snooze. She’s cool with cats but prefers a slow one-week "getting to know you" phase with other dogs. On walks, she’s a pro—unless there’s snow! She’s currently learning that booties aren't so bad. She’d likely thrive with kids who respect her personal bubble. Please, no squeaky toys! They scare her "half to death"—she prefers a quiet life of luxury.
