Maddy's Story

Welcome to Heart's Promise Sheltie Rescue and please give a huge welcome to our new gal MADDY. Maddy is a Sheltie Puppy 1 year old and will be turning 2 years on December 1, 2025. She is a taller and very active gal at 41 pounds and loves to play. Welcome to Heart's Promise Sheltie Rescue and please give a huge welcome to our new gal MADDY. Maddy is a Sheltie Puppy 1 year old and will be turning 2 years on December 1, 2025. She is a taller and very active gal at 41 pounds and loves to play. Maddy is an affectionate, extremely smart youngster. She is very curious and loves her yard. Maddy is very athletic and can turn on a dime. With proper training she could excel in agility or fly ball. Maddy, does, however, require ongoing socialization and obedience. She is housebroken but requires reinforcement as she was often "tied out" for lengthy periods of time in her past home. She's very active and friendly and is just learning how to be part of her foster family (dog and human.) She would do well with older children, but may be too strong for younger children or toddlers. Maddy is very friendly with the other dogs in her foster home and loves to play. Cats are questionable and she may like to chase the cats for play but she is a very gentle sheltie girl by nature. Training will be a must, but the effort will be worth it. This girl is a diamond in the "ruff." Maddy is being fostered in the Belle Vernon / Pittsburgh, PA area. This sheltie pup will need a SECURE FENCED IN YARD...and no exceptions. (Please do not inquire if you do not have a secure fenced in yard). We adopt to forever homes here in the state of PA and will consider adoption homes just over the PA state line, but we do not do long distance adoptions. Inquiries can be emailed to: mikelamontshelties@gmail.com or a reply here to this post on this adoption site. Adoption applications can be download from our Heart's Promise Sheltie Rescue website at: pasheltierescue.org or contact me directly by email at: mikelamontshelties@gmail.com
