6/26/08 - Everything is great. Maggie is such a good girl. She and Mugsy have gotten along good from 
the moment they met. Neither one have had a growl or a bad moment together. At first they just ignored 
each other for about 1 day. But, on Sunday we went to the farm and they both ran and played together 
all day. Maggie wasn't scared of the cows until a baby turned around and chased her. It was so funny, 
we were laughing so hard that we were crying. She also got along with my mother in laws shepard.
He's and old guy also so they all had fun. Let me tell you she came home and slept good that night. 
She will not eat any dry food so we just gave up and are giving her the canned food. No big deal, 
because Mugsy can only have soft foods and Maggie is happy to eat what she is having. She
knows the routine around here pretty good. Every morning Brad lets them out at 5:30 and they get to run 
for about 1 hour. She just follows Mugsy and has not left the property. When he leaves he puts the collars 
on them and they hang out outside until the kids go to school. Let me tell you that the minute she hears 
them walk out the door she is yapping to get in. They hang out with me until noon and then they go and lay 
in the sun for the afternoon. She is really smart and has learned the wireless collar quick. She will not
pass the flags and if she comes close and the collar gives a warning beep she turns and walks away. Both 
of the girls sleep together at night. You can find them curled up together on the loveseat. Maggie
seems to have an upset tummy and eats a lot of grass. So I have been giving her a pepsid a/c and it seems 
to help a lot.  Yesterday she didn't eat any grass at all. The first night she wouldn't let the cat out of
her site but, now she doesn't even pay attention to her at all. She is taking Mugsy's lead on that. We are 
soooo impressed that she has fit in so good. She is learning the house rules quickly and has
caused no problems at all. She knows exactly when the kids are done with dinner because her and Mugsy 
both sit in the kitchen and watch me fit them an after dinner snack. She learned that one really quick. I
will kept you posted, but it feels like she has been here forever.

6/22/08 - Maggie has been adopted.

6/16/08 - Maggie is pending adoption

5/25/08 - Maggie girl has had a busy week. My granddaughter and her little sister were here the entire
 week.  She spent all her time with the girls. I have some new and adorable pictures to have put on her
 site. I think the pictures speak for her and how it all went.

5/4/08 - Maggie is doing very well. She is running more in the yard and seems more flexible. The
 glucosamine/chondroitin seems to be working pretty well for her. All three dogs are getting along 
very well. She is still a pretty quiet girl and loves her naps. She also knows her meal times and awaits
 them anxiously. If she is in her crate and wants to go out she will give a quick bark. Same thing if
 she is outside and ready to come in. Just one quick bark. She appears to like the outdoors. Maggie
 Mae is still a sweetie.

4/25/08 - Mags is doing wonderfully. This week she transitioned with the 11 month old 
puppy. Huge shepard. They no longer need to be separate. So it looks like Maggie girl can 
be around a cat once she is used to it and a rambunctious pups. She keeps getting better. 
Maybe this next week she can make my bed for me. That's all for now.

4/21/08 - Here is a surprise update on Maggie girl. We went away again this weekend to 
the home with the cat. On Sunday morning someone had let the cat in and we didn't know it. 
Well Maggie Mae walked right over to him and licked his head. From that point on she cried 
and barked and whined at the cat because he wouldn't play with her. He totally ignored her. 
So maybe with the right introduction and supervision she would be okay with cats. She 
continues to be a sweetheart. 

4/3/08 - This weekend was a huge test on Maggie Mae. My granddaughter and her family 
came to stay the weekend. She is 5 and her baby sister is under a year old. Well Mag Pie 
did wonderfully. She just loved the baby to pieces. She has to be in the same room with her. 
As the weekend progressed my grandson came over also and he is 8. She loved having all 
the kids here. She didn't know who to lick first. The baby loved her and would lay on her and 
hold her paw. So as she is only crawling and not walking I would say Mags is great with little 
ones. When they headed out the door to go home she wanted to leave with them. She is one 
great girl.

3/24/08 - Maggie is doing great.  I call her Maggie Mae and Magpie... she is so sweet.  
Maggie is running more, enjoying the outside and seems to be coming more agile and limber.  
I have been giving her glucosamine and chondroitin and the dietary supplement biotin everyday.  
Maggie has been responding beautifully it is nice to see her more active and having fun.

Maggie is settled in and feeling at home  She and my boxer Tony can often be seen laying on each 
end of the couch snoozing.  Maggie has our daily routine down in the morning she goes outside, comes 
in for breakfast and then back outside.    She will be able to enjoy outside more as the weather gets 
warmer.   Maggie is obedient and eager to please...   she knows our routine so well that I don't even 
have to tell her....she automatically walks over and gets in her crate.  Maggie is happy to see me when 
I return from work.. she is full of boxer wiggles.

Maggie would benefit from having a home with an experienced leader.  She loves children and can be 
protective of them.   Maggie would do well in a home with gentle children.

Maggie is a laid back, mellow girl and if she were to live with another dog she would prefer another her 
own age.. or older.  Maggie gets along wonderful with my male Boxer they are like bookends.   Maggie 
Mae has all of the wonderful qualities that we love about Boxers. She is a very sweet, loveable girl.
