Meet Maisie

Maisie is a 2.5 year old blue-nosed Pittie with the energy of a 2-year-old and the heart of a golden retriever. She is hands-down one of the most affectionate, cuddly dogs youll ever meet happiest when shes with her person, including squeezing into whatever spot gets her closest to you at night.

Shes calm, smart, and VERY food motivated walks perfectly on a leash and knows sit, stay, down, and heel. Shes great with strangers, other dogs (prefers calmer dogs), and small animals (cats TBD introduce slowly). She has just the right level of protective instinct without any aggression.

Exercise-wise, shes low-maintenance: 15-20 minutes of active play (fetch, tug, running) plus a couple of meaningful walks and shes content. Shes currently thriving in a NYC one-bedroom, though a home with outdoor space would be a bonus.

Best fit: Someone with prior dog experience, a family home, or a work-from-home lifestyle. She's fine alone for hours but flourishes with human

Maisie is ready to be your best friend we promise she wont disappoint.
