Maylene

I'm a 1-2 yr old, 46 lb red lab/pit mix named Maylene. My foster person says I'm a really good dog. I’m house trained, crate trained and know basic obedience commands. I’m low energy and could well live in an apartment or townhouse. Let me tell you a bit about me. I had a home once and thought my person loved me as much as i loved him. He was my whole world. I learned to sit, I'm house trained. I absolutely love to ride in a pick up truck or car; i always stay right in the passenger seat. But i wasn't spayed and i had a litter. One day we all went for a ride, my person, the puppies and me. We stopped on a country road and once we were out of the truck my person got back in and left me behind with my beautiful puppies. I knew there had to have been a terrible mistake, so i waited right there. One night passed, then another. I was very hungry and very frightened. All of my energy went into nursing my puppies. If we didn't get help we wouldn't last much longer. The kind man who saw me stopped to help. He took us to his house where his wife gave us good food to eat and said my puppies looked adorable. The kind people fed us well. I heard them say that i had looked like a skeleton when they found me, but i was really improving. They also said what a great dog i am! I'm now in a different foster home. A shelter kindly made room for the puppies and Lucky Tails is looking a forever home that will appreciate my nice temperament, intelligence and calm nature. I dont know how I would be with kids I'm sure with time I would like them - Cats are ok with me and I prefer to be friends with just the boys as some girls can be mean to me.
