Plott Hound - Mazie - Large - Adult - Female - Dog
Say hello to this beautiful girl - this is Mazie! She is a medium size (50 lb), 4 year old Plott Hound Mix. Mazie's life started in Ohio where she was picked up as a stray and taken to a county pound. Through Mazie's eyes, the world can be a very scary place and it's a very good possibility that she came from a home where it was very unstable, chaotic and brutal (domestic issues it's feared) for a very sensitive girl like her. Because of her past-life, she has trust issues. Pound volunteers showered her with love and attention for 6 months, making her one of the longest residing dogs at the pound. Well, Mazie's time was up due to the pound filling to capacity and that's when the volunteers went into overdrive and found a way to save her.
Mazie still has a long road ahead of her but is slowing seeing her way through. She loves stuffed toys, especially teddy bears that she carries around everywhere (even outside) and has quite a silly side to her. Belly rubs are now one of her new favorite things and she has taken quite a liking to soft blankets and pillows. She does walk well on a leash but could use some guidance now and then. This girl is also an active girl and the more activity she can be a part of, the happier Mazie is. Basic commands were not an important part of her previous life but she is a very quick study and is in the process of working on those. She is house and crate trained and is a great ride along dog for car rides. Mazie is also up to date on her vaccinations, spayed and microchipped.
Because of Mazie's past and her trust issues, she will need a very confident, experienced owner that is very patient, calm and consistant. Once you gain her trust, she does bond very quick and will look to you for complete guidance. Also because of the traumatic life she lived in, she would do the very best in a calm home environment without kids. She has been cat tested and was more curious about the cats than anything (got a little growly when one swatted her - who could blame her). Right now her social skill with other dogs are not the greatest. She had no problem meeting a litter of pups and currently has a female Coonhound as a "roomy" which she is learning to get a long with. With proper time and introductions, she may be ok with one female dog her size. Unfortunately right now, male dogs are absolutely not going to work for her. Whatever happened in Mazie's past had to do with men, so she does take longer to warm up to them, but if you let her set the pace and don't push she will come around.
