Info: Maddie
and Mandy are beautiful Double Merle sisters rescued from a high kill shelter
in West Virginia. When they were pulled, they were filthy, matted, covered in
their own feces, and had to be shaved down. They were temp-fostered until transport
to New Hampshire to be long-term fostered, but unfortunately, the long-term foster
reported that one of them bit her personal dog. The rescue does not have any
other available foster homes, and the girls are currently in boarding. Their
rescue is desperately hoping they can get out of boarding and into another
foster or adoptive home as soon as possible! They are a bonded pair and have
been together for 9 years. Mandy is blind and Maddie is deaf and blind. Maddie
and Mandy are indoor dogs who are crated, they are housebroken but not leash
trained. They are described as nervous and shy for obvious reasons. They are
great with men, women, and children and are very loving and affectionate. Their
rescue writes, "The boarding facility manager said they are very adapted
to their kennel and play area. It does not take them long at all to be
acclimated. The manager is in love and spends time with them every day. She
said if she didn't already have two, she would adopt them in a moment!" Maddie
and Mandy are nervous around animals they don't know. In
boarding and at their short-term foster home, however, they did not have any
issues and the short-term foster reported they were great with her other dogs.
They are not possessive of toys, treats, or food. Their rescue writes,
"All who meet them say they are the sweetest girls!" and they want us
to know they're lovable and playful! And very affectionate!
