Mazie is an incredibly affectionate, sweet, highly energetic, playful, and super smart dog. She is looking for her forever home with adults or kids that are over the age of 12 and who have an active lifestyle (enjoy walks, hikes, outdoor activity, etc). She would be happiest with a fenced in yard so she can get out her zoomies between walks. She has completed basic training, knows many commands and is looking for someone who will commit to continuing her training on things like confidence, personal space boundaries, sharing toys, and recall.
Sweet Mazie adores belly and ear rubs, long walks anywhere, treats (especially ice, cheese, bacon, and peanut butter), splashing in puddles, snow, chewing on bones, and 'talking' to get attention.
