Arrival Story:
We rescued Madison from a kill shelter in Indiana. She was on her last day when we rescued her. I am a member of the Petfinder messageboard and a another member named Tara worked with this shelter to find rescues for the dogs at this shelter. She posted that Madison was the next to be euthanized. I had just looked at her picture about a half hour before and was thinking I hope someone adopts her well it seemed like fate that that would be me. Tara drove Madison from Indiana to Wheeling, WV. I met her there and picked up my new baby along with a bunch of other dogs going to rescues in Pennsylvania, New York and Massachuesetts.

Bio:
Madison was very shy when we first got her but she is coming around now. She was not big on giving kisses before but she does now and before she did not get very excited when she saw you but she does now. She absolutely loves it when you call her Maddie Madison. Her tail starts wagging so hard, her whole butt wiggles. It's so cute!!!
