Maddie's Story

Maddie's journey has been one of the most rewarding transformations to watch.<br/><br/>When Maddie first came into foster care, she was unsure of the world and needed time to feel safe. Fast forward almost two months, and this girl has truly started to shine. She's discovered that people can be kind, couches are cozy, and life is a whole lot more fun when you have friends to play with.<br/><br/>As Maddie's confidence has grown, so has her personality. She's an energetic, playful dog who wants to spend her days running, wrestling, playing, and having fun. One thing that has become very clear is that another playful dog in the home is a must for her. She absolutely thrives with canine companions and would be happiest with a dog who enjoys active play and can keep up with her enthusiasm.<br/><br/>Maddie is house trained, crate trained, and enjoys the comfort of having a routine. But while she has come such a long way in foster care, it's important to understand that her confidence has been built slowly over time.<br/><br/>Maddie is not going to walk into a new home and immediately be the happy, playful girl you see in her pictures and videos. A new home, new people, new smells, new routines, and a whole new environment will be a lot for her. She will likely need ample time to decompress and may become quiet, timid, or withdrawn again at first. Her new family will need to be patient and allow her to settle in at her own pace without expecting her to immediately show them her personality.<br/><br/>But that patience is so worth it.<br/><br/>Give Maddie the time and space she needs, and you'll get to watch her slowly begin to trust you. You'll see her curiosity come back. You'll see her start to play. You'll see that silly, energetic personality emerge. And eventually, you'll get to meet the beautiful girl we have had the privilege of getting to know and love.<br/><br/>Watching Maddie learn to trust has been such a gift. Her next family will need to be willing to continue that work, but they'll also get to experience the incredible transformation that happens when Maddie realizes she is safe.<br/><br/>Maddie's adoption fee is $300 and includes spay, vaccinations, parasite prevention, and a microchip.<br/><br/>If you think you can be the right fit for Maddie, please complete an adoption application on our website at www.fullcirclerescueandsanctuary.com.
