Aloha! I’m Maui. You might associate my name with a tropical paradise. Well, I offer warm welcomes, a relaxed pace, and excellent company…without the airfare. At my age (I’m 12), I’ve figured out what matters ~ lovely walks, good company, and a generous daily allowance of cuddles. Should you fall behind on that last item, I’ll remind you with my high-pitched singing voice. Apparently, subtle hints aren’t my specialty. My foster family describes me as sweet, gentle, loving, and a good listener. I’m still a playful girl who enjoys the company of other four-legged friends (even a little Yorkie makes a wonderful playmate). A friendly canine companion would help keep that lovely spring in my step. I also live peacefully with three cats. I walk nicely on leash without pulling, although I prefer the scenic route at a sensible pace. There’s no need to rush a good sniffari. Car rides? Count me in! Now, a few things you should know. I’m very attached to my person and can become anxious when we’re apart, even if you’ve just gone into another room. I do settle after you leave; however, I’m looking for someone home much of the time. Thunderstorms aren’t my cup of tea either. I can also be protective of a favourite toy or chew, showing my teeth or giving a warning growl if someone tries to take it or another furry friend gets too close. My family will need to respect those warnings and help me enjoy my treasures safely. I’ve already lost four pounds and am continuing with my prescription weight-management food. Slow, steady walks and a family who helps me keep trimming down will suit me beautifully. Mostly, I’m a gentle girl who wants to love and be loved. I’ll happily trade island sunsets for quiet evenings beside you. You don’t have to take me to paradise…just take me home and that will be paradise for me.
