Lizzie
Posted November 2024
​
Lizzie is a Chihuahua mix, maybe with some Dachshund or Corgi genes too. She is an adult girl but the estimates have been between 2 and 5 years old. She is 19 lbs. and just as sweet as can be! Lizzie is house & crate trained, travels well in the car and is not a barker. Lizzie ADORES her little stuffed toys and has a particular little mouse friend she likes to carry around everywhere she goes!
Lizzie was rescued from the streets of Puerto Rico after a dog loving couple noticed her wandering for a couple of weeks and clearly without anyone caring for her. They kindly took this little girl into their home and fostered her with their own two dogs whom she did just fine with. She had all her medical needs attended to with our rescue partners which included repair of a cherry eye (a prolapsed gland)
Lizzie is well behaved, calm and LOVES to be with people! She gets along with other dogs but would likely be quite happy soaking up all the attention as an only dog too. She is currently fostered with a small male dog and a cat whom after the first few days of not being sure what to make of her, they now snuggle on the couch together.
We are excited to help this girl move on to the next chapter of her life here in New England!
​
Please note: we do not have a physical facility where the dogs are housed; they are cared for in our wonderful foster network throughout Maine. It is our expectation that a potential adopter will meet the dog(s) in the foster setting where the dog is feeling safe and loved.
