MADDIE

Meet Maddie. She is a 4 - 5 year old Mini Poodle/Yorkie intentional cross weighing 11.5 pounds. She came to us from a local shelter where she was picked up as a stray. She was extremely stressed and desperately looking for her person. She was frantic when she first came into rescue. It was obvious that she was very confused about where she was and what had happened to her past life. After a few days Maddie started to calm down. She had been someone very much loved pet. She loves sleeping in bed, going for walks, LOVES the car, good with cats and is fine with other small non dominate dogs but really wants to be the center of her person's eye more than anything. She is house trained, crate trained. She loves to play ball and play with toys and is happy to meet everyone she sees. She is very eager to please and smart. She is a velcro dog.<br/><br/>Maddie's best home would be as an only dog or one other dog that is passive but playful and is not demanding of the owner's attention. She wlll need a fenced area or yard that leads directly from the living area of the home where she can run and play and bask in the sun. Maddie will need to live with someone that is working from home and can have a dog in their work space, someone that works very part time (a few hours a day) or who is retired. Maddie has not been around children so a home without children would be best.<br/><br/>Star-Mar Rescue is a natural care provider. We feed a species appropriate, balanced, raw diet-- a true raw grind, frozen or freeze dried. Madddie is currently eating SmallBatch freeze dried food.We use no chemical "preventatives", minimally vaccinate and use no chemicals on our yards or in our homes (natural laundry detergent, no dryer sheets and natural cleaners). We believe in protection without harm. We adopt to people who are already following this level of care or who are eager to learn and commit.<br/><br/>Please go to Star-Mar Rescue Natural Care FB page and click on "MORE" under the pictures at the top of the page, then click on "VIDEOS". There is a 7 part video series called The Truth About Pet Cancer. Video 3 and 7 are missing and will be reloaded soon. It will help you to understand what we do and why we do it. The vets, nutritionists and researchers are the very top in their field. You can also scroll through the FB page and read some of the articles there. If this is not a practice that you are already following we will expect that you will have a lot of questions. We are happy to discuss this with you.<br/><br/>We adopt within a 1.5 hour driving distance from Wooster, OH. This includes both the Cleveland and the Columbus area. We ask that you first come to visit the dog. We then do a home visit where we bring the dog to your home. After introducing Maddie to the home, yard and other animals, we will leave her there for about an hour and then pick her up and take her back to her foster home. If the adoption goes forward the adopters will come to the foster home to complete the adoption. We're found this to be the most respectful way to transition a dog. When they leave us they are going somewhere they have already been with someone they already know.<br/><br/>PLEASE do not use the petfinder form to contact Star-Mar. Many do not get delivered. Please read Maddies's bio carefully so you know if you can meet her adoption requirements and then email learymjri@aol.com or call 330.466.3667.<br/><br/>Star-Mar Rescue is registered with the Ohio Department of Agriculture as required by law.
