Maisy's Story

Maisy was found on the side of the road emaciated and terrified. She is approximately 1-2 years old and still full of puppy energy! Maisy would do best in a home that can keep her on a consistent schedule/routine to avoid her becoming anxious. As with most young dogs, if Maisy is bored, anxious, or understimulated, she becomes a chewer. She goes on a mile walk daily with her foster and LOVES it! She is potty trained, crate trained, heartworm negative, spayed, and microchipped. She needs a family willing to dedicate lots of time and attention to her! She already knows sit, down, and give paw, but still needs help with leash training, and jumping on counters and people. For this reason, she would do best in a home without small children (she has not been tested around children). She is very food motivated, learns fast, and just wants to please her humans! Maisy LOVES fresh blueberries and will eat them straight off the bush if you have one! Maisy weighs about 40 pounds and does not know her size! She loves to sit in her foster mom's lap and get backrubs! She is a little rough with small dogs, so would do best in a home without a small dog, and she has not been cat tested. Due to Maisy's energy level, she requires a six foot fenced backyard. Masiy's foster family would LOVE to keep in touch with her adopter(s) for updates and possible visits, if her new family is comfortable with that! To meet Maisy, please fill out an application here and once approved a meeting can be scheduled: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/25085/generic PLEASE NOTE: We place dogs based on best home for each dog and not order of applications received.

Magpie & Daisy's Pet Rescue's Adoption Policy

Adopting a pet is a SERIOUS COMMITMENT. We strongly encourage anyone thinking about adding a four-legged family member and be ready for this commitment. Please carefully consider the financial obligation you will take on when adopting a new family member. It is important to be sure you can properly care for your pet now and in the future. We will also be happy to work with you to figure out what kind of pet is best for you. If you want to have a pet in your home but aren’t sure you can make the 10-20 year commitment, consider fostering pets. We provide as much information on each animal’s history, disposition and health as we can gather. We strongly believe that honesty is the best policy. We want each of our animals to find the RIGHT home, not just ANY home. Likewise, we want you to find the pet who best matches your lifestyle and interests. Pet Adoption Process You will first be required to complete our Adoption Application through our Petstablished software system. Once submitted and approved, an adoption coordinator will contact you via phone or e-mail to schedule a phone interview and schedule a meeting with the pet, unless. you have met them at our adoption center or an event. If you are renting, we require proof that you are allowed to have a pet as well as any breed or size restrictions that may exist. If you have pets or did previously, we require your vet information and we will call them to verify that your pets are in good health, current on vaccines and spayed/neutered. We require that all pets in the home be spayed/neutered unless there are health reasons that can be verified with the vet. If you have never owned a pet, we require that you contact a vet to discuss cost & obligations associated with owning a pet. Pet Adoption Agreement In our Adoption Agreement, we require that every animal be spayed/neutered (if not prior to adoption) by a specific date. This is VERY important as the overpopulation of dogs and cats in our country is a sad result of too many unplanned litters! If for any reason the match is not as perfect as we all had hoped, the dog or cat must be returned to Magpie & Daisy's not given away or turned in to a shelter. Serious fines apply to violators of the Magpie & Daisy's Agreement to Adopt. So be clear about what you are signing and be prepared to abide by the contract. It is legally binding and we take it very seriously. IMPORTANT: -WE ONLY ADOPT LOCALLY or within the Hampton Roads or 757 area to include Southampton County, Williamsburg, Gloucester, and surrounding areas. -Magpie & Daisy's requires adopters to be at least 23 years of age. We will require proof of age to finalize any adoption. All persons not related living in the home must be 23, this includes roommates or boarders. -Active duty military including spouses must be at least 30 years old or homeowners. Both must be present at adoption; service member cannot be deployed. Pet Adoption Fee Magpie & Daisy's adoption fees vary depending on type of animal, the originating shelter and the vetting the animal has received. Our adoption fees are set to allow us to cover our expenses as well as to help other animals in our program that require additional care. Our fees cover vetting costs, shelter fees, fuel for transport, copying and printing of contracts and paperwork, our website presence, food, boarding, behavioral training and additional medical care. It is important to note that while the animal you adopt may not require all of these things, many other animals in our system do. Thus, any “extra” money from adoption fees goes to help those animals who may require additional care. By adopting from Magpie & Daisy's, you are not saving just one life, you are helping to save others as well. Our Foster Program Help us save more lives by becoming a foster! Fosters are the bridge between under resourced shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save dogs and cats before they are euthanized at the shelters. If you are interested in becoming a foster, please check out our information about fostering by visiting. https://www.facebook.com/magpiedaisypetrescue
