#ReadyToBeAdopted #TakeMeHome #RescuePartnerAdoptMe

Looking for the perfect companion to add to your family?

Meet Mazie-Mae, a healthy 11-year-old who just needs a comfy lap or a nice doggie bed to snuggle in.

Mazie is fostered by Paws for Seniors in Toms Brook, VA.

She is crate and playpen trained and knows to do her business outside; she is also pee-pad trained if necessary.

Mazie-Mae is up to date on her rabies and distemper vaccinations, microchipped, and recently had a dental. She was also recently spayed.

She would love to go to a family or someone who is home most of the time and has a fenced-in area where she can play, wander, and lay in the sun.

If you are looking for a quiet, laid-back little girl, Mazie-Mae is the perfect companion for you! Don’t miss out on the opportunity to bring this wonderful little lady into your life (she deserves a family and a place to live out her golden years).
