About Maggie

Lovely Maggie is a sweet, medium-sized lurcher girl of almost 5 years old. She’s looking for a new family due to a change of circumstances in her current home. She is a much loved family member, and the difficult decision to rehome her has been made with her best interests in mind. Maggie is a sweet, friendly dog who loves her walks and playing fetch with her tennis ball, but is equally as happy snoozing on the sofa! She has a beautiful nature and is very friendly with people, although she finds children very overwhelming and will hide away from loud noise or busy environments. She’s a sociable girl who enjoys the company of other dogs, of all shapes and sizes! She currently shares her home with another dog, and would be happy to do so again – but she’d also be content as the only pet at home, as long as she gets plenty of love and attention! She’s used to home life and is clean indoors, and can be left alone for a few hours at a time. Maggie can find car travel stressful, but has potential to improve with the right input. She absolutely cannot do a full flight of stairs, despite her best efforts to learn – so a home where she can stay downstairs is important! Maggie is a big fan of sunbathing, so will need her own garden to relax in. She’s also a big fan of food, and does need to lose a fair amount of weight! Maggie walks very nicely on the lead, though she can be strong if she spots a squirrel. She loves to run, but only in secure areas (such as fields for hire).

Homing Needs

• No resident children, and space to take herself away from any visiting children if she feels overwhelmed.
• Could live with another dog, or as the only pet.
• A calm, quiet home environment.
• A secure garden for sunbathing.
• A home where she doesn’t have to do stairs (a few steps are fine).
• A Maggie-sized space on the sofa!
