AvailablePhotos and bio come straight from ShelterLuv and update as Mae's foster learns more.
Mae
Female, 6 years, 65 lbs. In foster care.
- $500
- Adoption fee
Mae is slowly but surely coming out of her shell and discovering the joys of life outside of a breeder’s care. Every day she learns something new about what it means to be part of a family, and it’s been beautiful to watch her blossom.
She’s figured out that being indoors is pretty great — she can come in and out as she pleases, meals arrive twice a day (and she loves that), dog beds are cozy, chew toys are fun, and other dogs make excellent company. Walking on a leash is still a little scary, but she’s already braver than she was when she first arrived.
Mae has a gentle heart and so much love to give. She’s sweet, soft‑natured, and ready to continue her journey with a family who will guide her kindly and celebrate each step she takes.
If you’re looking for a tender, blossoming girl who’s learning how wonderful life can be, Mae would love a family to call her own.
Interested? Here is what happens next.
- Submit an ApplicationComplete our adoption application after reviewing the Adoption Requirements and FAQs. Please answer every question completely, as incomplete applications cannot be processed. You're welcome to indicate interest in a specific dog, but because our commitment is to the right match, requesting a particular dog does not guarantee placement.
- Phone Interview & Home VisitAfter your application is reviewed, a GRFR volunteer will contact you if you meet our adoption requirements. A phone interview to learn more about your family, home, lifestyle, and expectations, then a home visit to ensure your home is a safe environment for a dog. ALL household members and resident dogs/pets MUST be present during the home visit.
- Meet Your MatchWhen one of our foster volunteers believes a dog may be a good fit for your family, they'll contact you to arrange a meet-and-greet. If you receive a voicemail or text message from a foster, you must respond within 24 hours. If you do not respond the foster home will move on to the next approved applicant.
