Leave a bone for Matea

Nicknames: Meathead, Mama Mia

Quick Bio:
 Likes: birds, bunnies, birds and birds

Pet-Peeves: strange dogs that have no manners and get right in her face

Favorite Toy: the cat, training dummies

Favorite Food: anything raw

Favorite Walk: the trails with her doggie friends

Best Tricks: bringing whatever I need, especially when you're stuck on the toilet with no paper!

Arrival Story: I had just lost my angel-dog Murph, and wasn't truly looking. In researching possible breeds to rescue, I came across the 7 month old "Maggie" at a shelter over 2 hours north. I'd never owned a hunting breed before, and this girl was wild! She was a kennel Picasso, jumping 6+ feet in the air and smearing her kennel with you-know-what. Filthiest dog the shelter said they'd ever had. I don't know WHAT possessed me. Must have been the beard

Bio: I'd never dreamed a dog could be so awesome. Matea is a phenomenal family dog, LOVES everyone she meets, especially kids. She is a true service dog, helping to bring in groceries, retrieving towels and any other item when needed. When I was immobolized for several months, she was my right hand girl.
After several bad experiences at dog parks between 8-10 months of age, she has some fear issues which we are making strides in overcoming.
There ain't nothin' this dog can't do, as long as you take the time to teach her. I've never had a more willing and enthusiastic student, although I often wonder who's taught who more in this partnership!
