As we get to know Maddie, here are some updates:

 

Maddie has lost all of her teeth except the front 2, so she eats soft food. She is a chowhound!  She needs an open kennel all the time, since that is still where she feels the safest.  She comes out of the kennel looking for us now, and loves to sit in a lap. Any lap. Any time.   She is stubborn about doing her business outside, but is getting better. She doesn't mess in the house, except if she has been in her kennel a long time.

 

She is still skittish, but is slowly learning to trust us. She does very well with the rest of the herd..I mean dogs.  She only barks when you get home, she wants out of that kennel.

 

She would do best, we think, with someone who is home with her most of the time, or could take her along.
