Congratulations Luna!!!

Luna is a beautiful snow white seven-year old female with baby blue eyes. Due to life changes, her family is no longer able to care for her and Luna is in need of a new family to love and call her own.

Luna is a very well behaved lady once she gets to know her routine. She is housebroken and crate trained. She enjoys her crate and sleeps in it even when the door is open. Luna is an alpha girl and will be best with only one or two male dogs that she can boss around. She is great with people and children ten years or older.

Luna loves car rides, going for walks and squeaky toys. She is a great indoor companion and just wants to love and be loved. If you are looking for a dependable companion without the puppy issues, Miss Luna may be just the one for you!

Congratulations Scotty!!!

Scotty is a big, lovable red and white husky that is eight years old. This middle aged Siberian has clear blue eyes and a friendly smile. Sadly Scotty’s family was moving into assisted living and could not take him with them. We promised that we would care for Scotty until we found a wonderful and loving home for him.

Scotty wasn’t sure what was happening to him and he missed his folks. He was rather sad, but his foster family has given him a lot of TLC and he is beginning to understand that he still has plenty of friends that love him.

Scotty is an easy-going husky with a sweet and mellow disposition. He is housetrained and walks nicely on a leash. Scotty is looking for love and a place to call his own where he will be safe and sound. Are you ready for a new best friend?

There are times in rescue when it feels like certain things just fall into place, like they were meant to be. Such is the case with 2 of our pups ~ Jessie and Hope. At first glance, the 2 of them are obviously very different in appearance and personality. Their paths to MaPaw are strangely connected.

It all started when 1 of our volunteers had been alerted to a missing Husky named Jessie that had just run away from her home. The volunteer was visiting family and actually in the process of leaving, when Jessie’s owner had stopped at the driveway to ask if a black and white Husky had been seen. After a brief conversation, it was learned that Jessie had just been adopted privately through a Craigslist ad about an hour before. Her new owners were not familiar with the Husky breed or the instincts that drive them to run if not contained properly. Jessie pushed right through their screen door and off she ran. Obviously it’s bad news when any pup runs away, but this poor pup was in an area that she was not remotely familiar with.

After a sighting in an area near the development where the family lived, MaPaw volunteers spent the next week driving up and down the same stretch of road. We handed out flyers, business cards and talked to everyone we saw. In our travels we found a woman that had actually had Jessie in her house before she managed to escape again. We thought this was the best spot to place the Have-A-Heart trap. Unfortunately, the trap caught a cat the first night it was there. As the woman released the cat from the trap, she turned around to see Jessie watching her. Jessie followed her right into her home where she made sure that Jessie was securely contained before calling MaPaw. As soon as we got the call, we were on our way to pick Jessie up. After talking with her owners, they decided it would be best to find Jessie a Husky savvy home and she joined us at the Farm.

So what does that have to do with Hope? Well while we were searching for Jessie, one of our volunteers placed an ad on Craigslist. Luckily the ad was never removed and about a month ago, we were contacted by a good samaritan that had found a pup running on a very busy street. He said that she was very thin, infested with fleas and had open wounds on her feet. She had been taken to an area shelter, but her owner never came forward to take her home. When the good samaritan found out that nobody had claimed her, he turned to MaPaw for help. The next day, he picked Hope up from the shelter and she was on her way
to her MaPaw foster home.

Today, both girls are doing well. Jessie has been cleared after her week on the run and is looking for her forever home. Hope has been groomed and she looks (and probably feels) a lot better. She is still underweight, but is making progress. Once she is a healthy weight, she will begin her search for a forever home as well.

Congratulations Maverick!!!

Maverick is a six month old Siberian Husky puppy full of love and life! This poor little guy came into rescue with a skin condition which our vet feels was due to a prior flea infestation and/or a poor diet.

Maverick is responding well to vet treatment and lots of TLC from his foster family. We are very hopeful that once his medicine is finished, he will continue to do well and his itchiness will be a thing of the past with current and future flea preventative and a good diet.

Maverick is wonderful puppy who loves people and kids and gets along well with other dogs. Stay tune for more on this boy, we anticipate he will be available for adoption to the right home in the near future.

Congratulations Hope!!!

Hope is a tiny little girl that has placed huge paw prints on the hearts of so many people… She was found wandering loose in a very busy and dangerous intersection, starving and wounded. A Good Samaritan spotted the frail puppy and stopped to save her. Injured and dangerously underweight, all the puppy wanted to do was kiss and thank her new friends…

We named her Hope – she brought out hope in so many great people that helped bring her into rescue. She is estimated to be approximately 10 months old. We will never know her sad past, but we do know she will have a wonderful future.

Hope is receiving vet care, good nutrition and lots of TLC. In return she is giving unlimited kisses and love. She will be available for adoption once she heals and is a good weight. Please send sibe vibes for our little peanut, she only weighs 22 pounds!

Good evening Puppers ~
Check out the progress on the MaPaw kennels!

Here are the humans pouring the concrete into the footers…

Just when things started to seem like they were finally on track, Hurricane Irene roared her way into town. She was a feisty gal that brought with her a lot of wind and rain. Luckily the Farm only lost power for a few hours.

Once the Farm dried out from all of the rain, the humans started building the forms for the concrete walls. This is what the kennel will look like!!!

Once the forms were all up, it was time to pour the concrete!

Mother Nature has not been very cooperative throughout the construction so far, but we are hoping she will calm down long enough for us to finish the construction.

Our “Phase 1” will provide 10 indoor/outdoor kennel runs. These kennels will enable us to help even more dogs. Everyone at MaPaw is so excited and can’t wait until the kennels are finally completed!!

Check back for more updates on the kennels…

Congratulations Pugg!!!

Pugg is a happy and handsome seven-year-old Siberian Husky that is looking for love and he just craves attention. Unfortunately, due to life changes his family must reluctantly find someone else to love him and keep him as happy as they have.

Pugg is a good-natured dog. He is obedient (Sibe style) and loves to do tricks for treats. He absolutely loves peanut butter in his treat bones! He loves car rides and especially going for walks, but true to his breed he can pull.

Pugg loves to woo woo and talk and he would love to tell you just how lucky you would be to have him join your family. Please ask us more about this wonderful boy, he is a winner!

Congratulations Max!!!

Max is a very handsome six-year-old Siberian Husky with beautiful blue eyes. This friendly fellow has been in his home since he was just a puppy and is loved very much, however, the younger daughter has developed severe allergies to him. The family has no other option but to find him another family that will love him as much as they do.

Max loves people and children of all ages. He is very good around other dogs and has been a member in good standing at the nearby dog park for six years ~ he enjoys his daily trips there. He is mellow around the house and happy just to hang out with the family.

Max is on Phenobarbital and Potassium Bromide for epilepsy, however, his seizures are under control with this inexpensive medicine. This does not slow our happy boy down.

If you are looking for a best friend and loyal companion, please ask us more about Max.

Congratulations Shelby!!!

Shelby is a 1 year old female Siberian pup that has come a long way… She first came into rescue extremely timid and unsocialized. She loved playing with the other dogs, however, was frightened of people. Gradually Shelby has learned to trust from those she knows and we are very proud of our brave little girl.

Shelby has a great personality, however, she will need a family with patience and a lot of TLC until she gets to know them. Another active canine companion is a must for Shelby ~ she loves to play and she takes example from the other pups in the household.

Shelby has a special friend in rescue she loves to play with ~ see Meadow’s story. It is not necessary for them to be adopted as a pair, but if there is room in your home and heart for two sweethearts, they would be very happy! Please contact us about Shelby and/or Meadow and will be happy to tell you more.

Congratulations Bandit!!!

Bandit is a very handsome 16-month-old Siberian Husky that is sure to steal your heart! This boy has great looks and a personality to match. He is a happy boy and seems to always have a smile on his face.

Bandit is good with other dogs his size and is great with people. He loves walks, car rides and just hanging out. Due to his young age he will be best in a home with a secure fence and another canine pal to romp with.

We are enjoying getting to know this youngster. If you are interested in learning more about Bandit, please contact us ~ we would love to tell you more about him. He is going to make someone a wonderful companion!
