Maxie – 10 year old female Jack Russell Terrier
Maxie has come into the care of Cotswold Canine Rescue due to her owner having to go into a home. She had originally belonged to someone else as a youngster but has spent 4 years with her current owner before becoming homeless recently after a ”forever” foster home decided she was no longer wanted. No one was able to offer poor Maxie a home, so Cotswold Canine Rescue stepped in to help and arent we just so glad we did….
When Maxie came to us she was obviously very unhappy and confused, her eyes looked sore and her tail was permanently down… nothing could make that tail wag even slightly. After a thorough vet check it was decided to remove one of her eyes in which she had lost all her sight. It was touch and go for dear Maxie but the operation went well and after a huge dental as well, she came out of it all a far far happier dog. She is up to date with her vaccinations and is microchipped and currently in good health, although careful attention will need to be kept on her other eye. She is partially deaf too.
We are not totally sure on her age but it is thought to be around 10 years. She is fantastic with other dogs, love her routine and most definitely her walks. She is in a foster home currently and likes to potter in the garden and also join in country walks with her other canine friends. She is clean in the house and fine to be left for short periods..
So what type of home are we looking for? Maybe a fairly active older couple or person…. who enjoy a stroll, town or country Maxie doesnt mind… as long as she can take a stroll and have a good sniff. She enjoys routine and company so someone that is at home for most of the day would be ideal. No young grandchildren as although she would very likely be absolutely fine around young children, we dont feel it would be fair at her time of life….
We are looking for home within a 20mile radius of our rescue which is in Chipping Norton, West Oxfordshire…
No donation is required just a loving, secure home for however much time she has left…
(her pic was taken a few weeks after her eye op… so her hair is growing back nicely now!)
Can anyone help this dear dear old girl who really deserves a warm cosy home to spend the rest of her days…
