Maude - Beagle and Jack Russell Terrier Dog for Adoption in New Orleans, Louisiana

Meet Maude

Maude is a 2-year-old, 26-pound Beagle/Jack Russell Terrier mix who appears to have looked at the traditional terrier resume, crossed out "chaos," and written "perhaps a nap instead."

She is exceptionally sweet, mellow, cuddly, and gloriously unhurried. Maude enjoys affection, appreciates a comfortable place to lounge, and possesses the serene confidence of a dog who has never once considered skipping a meal. Breakfast matters. Dinner matters. Snacks are a matter of public policy.

She is dog friendly and does well with companions who share her civilized approach to life. High-energy dogs, however, are not really her constituency. Maude would prefer a friend who understands that companionship does not require parkour.

Her hobbies include cuddling, reclining, eating with admirable consistency, and generally maintaining an atmosphere of profound coziness. She is loving without being frantic, playful without being exhausting, and has the sort of temperament that makes "doing absolutely nothing together" feel like a legitimate plan.

Maude is heartworm positive, but Take Paws Rescue will complete her treatment. Her only assignment is to keep being Maude, which she is already doing with considerable expertise.

She is 26 pounds of sweetness, sensible boundaries, excellent appetite, and premium-level lounging.

Frankly, Maude has cracked the code.

The Beagle is a beloved breed known for its friendly nature, curious personality, and distinctive howl. These small to medium sized dogs are incredibly sociable and get along well with both humans and other pets. Beagles are curious and energetic, always eager to follow a scent with their incredible sense of smell, making them excellent hunting and tracking dogs. Their short coat is easy to maintain, and they are adaptable to various living environments, making them popular companions for families and individuals alike.

The Jack Russell Terrier is a lively and intelligent small breed known for its boundless energy and strong hunting instincts. With a distinctive white coat and often sporting tan or black markings, these dogs are full of personality and require regular exercise and mental stimulation to thrive. Jack Russell Terriers are fiercely loyal and make excellent companions for active owners willing to provide the mental and physical challenges this energetic breed needs to stay happy and healthy.
