Rewey

Update: Rewey was adopted!


Chow Chow through and through :)






Did you know that according to a survey by the American Animal Hospital Association, 70% of you humans sign your pet's name on greeting cards and 58% include their 4-legged family members in their holiday portraits?  Woah Baby - I want to be in that majority of dogs!  My name is Rewey (pronounced "Rooey") and I'm a 2-year-young 55-lb Chow Chow who is nothing if not true to my breed.  For starters, I'm a playful, smiley pup who will bound around when you talk to me in that high-excited voice that you dog-lovers like to use.  I'm also stunningly beautiful and you'll long remember my brilliant eyes after we first meet.  Like many chows, I am a bit head-shy and don't like anything placed over my head.  And, while I love licking your hands when they're presented in front of my face, I don't really love those vigorous pets on the body that some humans like to provide (because of this, I probably shouldn't live with smaller kids).   

I am housetrained and know some basic obedience commands.  I also *love* the snow (a photo of me in the snow might be just *perfect* for that 2011 Holiday card!  

Speaking of holidays, they are quickly approaching!  Are you the special human who will welcome me into your family for the holiday season?!?  My paws are crossed that you might even include me in your 2011 family holiday portrait (it's not too late - those online card companies are offering overnight shipping!)  Let's start our life-long journey together by you coming on down to MaxFund and asking for Rewey!

Shayla

12/20/11: Shayla was adopted!


Sweet, beautiful girl.


Greetings!  I'm Shayla and I'm an intelligent, glass-half-full kinda' girl.  One might ask, "Why the optimistic attitude when you're currently residing in a shelter, Shayla?"  Well, my name "Shayla" means "from the fairy palace."  And since I have yet to see that fairy tale palace, I just KNOW that it's in my immediate future!  I spend my days here checking out all visitors to see if they're the king, queen, prince or princess who has arrived to sweep me away to my happily-ever-after!

I'm a 5-year young, 65-lb doberman who has been described by folks around MaxFund as friendly, loving and quite the cuddler.  Not too much is known about my past as my previous guardian had to leave unexpectedly on a prolonged absence and (s)he didn't have time to tell anyone what a great gal I am.  However, a good samaritan took me in and brought me to MaxFund where I have the best chance of meeting my new royal guardians!

I was a superstar when I underwent my temperance tests here at MaxFund.  While I'm an active gal, the doggie temperament expert thinks I'll be a good, mellow companion who will fit well into most families.  I also know basic obedience commands such as sit and stay.  The MaxFund folks think my previous guardian yelled at me quite a bit so I'm hoping for a home where the guardians prefer to use their "indoor voices" when communicating (such as is fitting any royal family!)

If you're looking to add a loving, beautiful young royal to your family, please HURRY into MaxFund ASAP and ask for Shayla.  Let's start our happily-ever-after sooner-rather-than-later!!
