Meet the beautiful Momma Maize, a Shepherd mix born in late 2015, and her little boy Onyx, who is growing up! Maize and Onyx are a bonded pair who need to stay together. Both are good with people and other dogs. Whoever adopts this precious pair will have hit the jackpot twice!
Foster mom says: "Maize is amazingly sweet, loves to be next to you relaxing and loves getting brushed. She is not a fan of small animals, and would do best in a home with a fenced yard and on lead because she does jump a 5 foot fence with no problem! Onyx is just a huge goofball! He LOVES to chase a ball and wrestle with Mom." They are both crate trained, altered and up to date on vaccines.
Foster mom makes their wet food each week and adds dry dog food named Wholehearted. "I make rice, peas, carrots, apples, pineapple with turkey and beef. I give a heaping cupful with a cup of dry in the morning and a cup of dry only in evening. I feed them in their crates because Maize willlet Onyx eat her food! She still treats him like a puppy!"
