Maddie is a sweet and gentle 3-year-old, 9-pound Chihuahua mix that arrived at the Salinas Animal Shelter with her friend Tae, also on the web. Maddie is the more timid of the two dogs, and she derives great comfort from having a person or another dog friend nearby. Maddie has a very sweet temperament and likes to cuddle on laps. She's looking for a calm and patient adopter that can help her become more confident and independent. To learn more or arrange a meeting, please fill out an online adoption application. In order to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, we are currently adopting only to residents of Monterey County, CA.
