Weimaraner - Mattie - Large - Senior - Female - Dog
Greetings from the Buckeye State! My name is Mattie and I am an eight-year-old, blue, some might say Rubenesque girl. We all know it?s what?s inside that counts, but in case you are the nosy type, I now weigh about 90 pounds and am continuing to lose weight at my foster home. I?ve had lots of babies in my life and was dumped at a shelter when my people were done breeding me. I was in pretty rough shape when my foster Mom saved me. I had a straw-like coat with big bald spots and my back legs weren?t working so well. This was due to poor diet, lack of exercise, being in a crate too much and having way too many puppies. Now after months of love and attention and some really good food, I am looking like a brand new girl. My foster family says I am the most laid back Weim, they have ever fostered. The way I see it, I survived those rough years and am now ready and entitled to relax and take life easy! My favorite activity is to nap, though I do like a short walk when the weather is right. I am looking for a relaxed home that is pretty calm. I get along great with other dogs and I tolerate cats. Sometimes when the mood hits me, I will attempt to chase my foster family?s cats. It takes me a long time to get up and I am not too fast, so I am not a real threat. But, sometimes I do get obsessed and will sit by the basement door waiting for them to come and play with me. A home with older children would be best too, at my age I don?t have much patience for little ones. I do great free roaming and don?t need to be crated. I love to go for rides in the car, and just like to sit quietly and watch the world go by. Because of being crate for so long in my previous life, my back legs are still pretty weak. I can go up and down stairs ? if they are carpeted ? it just takes me longer than other dogs. I love to cuddle at night in my foster Mom?s bed, but she has to help me get into the darn thing. I also take inexpensive pills twice a day (with cheese, please) for a thyroid problem and I will probably need these for the rest of my life.
Does anyone have a place in their home and hearts (and bed?) for a low-energy kinda gal? If you are a less-running, more-snuggling kind of person, I?d love to meet you!
