Maggie was actually adopted by a spactacular family! It truly broke my heart and still is every day to not have her with us! But it was best for everyone! We (my family and myself) were constantly stressed out! We love her so much and tried trainers who all turned us away after the first day! They said the best thing would be to euthanize her. NO WAY IN HELL would I ever let that happen! If we couldn't fix her problems and no one would adopt her we would keep her forever and forever try to fix her problems! She was not a happy girl! She loved her family so dearly it was incomprehensible to "share" her family. Even with her best friends Bandit and Bridgette! She loved them if it was just them. She was the sweetest girl ever when they were not around. But if they came near us when she was getting attention, she would lose it. And we spent so much time screaming, training, crying and trying everything. I even put off the idea of having a second child because of Maggie! And that she was so bonded to my daughter Taylor she would give her life to protect her. And a new baby would not be safe around her. I thought she was truly hopeless! In the end all she wants is her family all to herself. We found a wonderful family! It's just the two adults. Maggie ideal life. The only pet and with her people 24 hours a day. She goes to work with them every day. I'm just so happy that because we were not the right family for her, we found one that was. I love her and miss her so much and I will always hold a special place in my heart for her. But I know she can now finally be truly happy! And her new family is thrilled with her.

I encourage all of you out there with problem dogs! Work through them! Do not give up. If you've come to the realization your not the right fit for them. Find them one that is. There are lots of patient loving people out there that want YOUR dog! DON'T GIVE UP! Your baby is counting on you!!
