AKA: MiniMaise, Maisie Moo, Maizilla, MiniMoo, Amazing Maisie, Diva Moo
Where do I begin with this little girl. Maizie is this tiny little 15lb, 12inch little girl. If she was any other dog I would call her a pocket pupper. Maizie had some early trouble with her legs before she came here, and apparently her little broken legs were never set properly. Maizies left front leg is all bowed and faces inward. When she tries to run she wobbles all over the place. She also had an extremely elevated fat level and needed to be put on a low fat diet. When Maizie first got here she had me wrapped around her tiny little paw. Maizie needed a special water bowl that was small and not so deep. She has a lot of problems drinking from a big bowl. Maizie will sit and howl at the water bowl if it is not full, and it must have cold filtered water...or she will NOT drink it. Problem is all the other dogs want the water in the little bowl. They have a large metal bowl that is filled with cold filtered water..but that is not good enough. When you approach the fridge where the water is Maisie must walk with you to the fridge, and then run to the water bowl so no one else gets to it first.
Maizie is our worst begger. She is so tiny and adorable she lives by the motto "I am tiny and cute, and that overrides anything else" She jumps up with them tiny legs and cute face and it is hard not to cave. Maisie loves to chase the puppers balls and a few of the stuffed chew toys. She does have a problem "retrieving" them because they are bigger then her. Kind of hysterical watching her drag the squeeky squirrel toy around.
Maizie is our resident mama. She must check Shanjen and Foxman when they are either outside for a long time, or after they have surgery...she wants to play protector with them. We adore little Moo
Maizie's lastest little play for her diva status, is to howl if she is left in a room alone. You can call her and she still howls.She will stand outside the computer room door and howl like crazy. My son was in the hospital for 2 weeks. When I would come home from anywhere, all the dogs would stand at the door looking for Mike to come in, when he didn't, Maizie would howl. She would sit outside his bedroom door and bark and scratch at the door waiting for Mike to let her in. After he came home, little Miss Diva would paw at his door, and sit waiting for him to open the door for her.
May 2010. Maizie went in to get her teeth
cleaned and a cyst removed off her ittle butt She also had 5 teeth
removed. Poor little girl. I called her Frankenbutt
