Mazie came to SFCR back in February after being released from a commercial breeding facility. She was in rough shape when she arrived but is loving all that her new life has to offer. All of the hair on Mazie's tail had fallen out and after some bloodwork it was discovered that she is hypothyroid. Mazie started medication and her thyroid level is right where it should be. She has more energy now and the hair on her tail is growing back! Mazie's thyroid medication is given twice a day and it is something she will require lifelong. The medication costs approximately $30 a month, she will also need bloodwork every 6-12 months. Mazie is working on her housetraining but it is still a work in progress and will need a consistent schedule. She does very well with other small dogs and even enjoys playing with toys.

Prior to being rescued, many of our dogs have received limited socialization, so they may need extra time to adjust and settle in. Older children are often a great fit for our dogs, and family's with younger children will be considered based on each dog's individual needs. Skills like house training and leash walking may require a little extra patience and practice. However, with understanding and a gentle hand, most of our dogs adapt quite quickly.
