Queen

Looking for a snuggly girl to cuddle and love? Then  Queen’s  your girl! She’s a  sweet, lovable, affectionate  5-year-old mastiff. At about 90  lbs , she’s not too big and not too small.  She’s housetrained and  sleeps through the night  in a crate. She’s happy and playful , but her favorite activity is to   snuggle with her people!  Friendly with  grown-ups and  kids  over 6 . Came to us from a sh elter in  Roanoke, VA  after her elderly owner could no longer care for her.  Poor girl came to the shelter covered in fleas, so her fur was a little patchy in places from her itching. But now she’s flea-free and is growing a beautiful, shiny black coat just in time for winter!  

Likes:   Snuggling and getting affection.  She loves to be petted and adored – she is the Queen after all!  She loves chewing on  a  bone and is happy napping on the couch or bed. Likes to be close to people.   

Dislikes:  She’s currently taking eye drops for an ulcer in her left eye, and she doesn’t like getting drops put in!  Not at all aggressive or grumpy, just very wiggly!   

Personality :    Very sweet and affectionate . Wants to be loved, petted and snuggled .  Moments of playfulness where she’ll play fetc h and run through the yard, but,  like all mastiffs, that doesn’t last long and she’s back to napping! 

Temperament:   She’s a nice girl.   She’ll let you inspect her  ears, feet and mouth  with no objection . Will let you remove food  and bones .  She’s a strong girl but she listens to what she’s told.

Energy level:    Low .  She has moments of playfulness and running in the yard.  Mostly she chews on bones and naps.  She  sleeps well through the night.  

Favorite activity :    Snuggling is by far her favorite activity. She loves affection . 

Good with :  People ,  including strangers and kids over 6.  Unknown how  she  is with cats.  

Housetrained :  Queen is housetrained. No accidents in her foster home . 

Crate trained:   Queen has a crate available to her at all times and sleeps in it at night.  

Challenges :    She’s a strong girl but responds well to verbal  directing/correcting .  Still needs to learn to walk nicely on a leash w/out pulling.   

Medical issues :    Queen was covered in fleas when she arrived at the shelter and as a result of the itching, her coat is a bit patchy in places. Now she’s flea-free and her beautiful shiny  black  coat is in the process of growing back nice and full.   She also has an ulcer in her left eye that she’s being treated for with eye drops.  It does not seem to bother her.

What would be the best kind of home:    Queen  would do well in a home  with a family willing to give  her  lots of love and affection.  She wants to be close to her people snuggling and giving and receiving love!

Fostered in Middletown, DE.
