Notes: Maxine is a three year old double dapple, wire haired, spayed female, Dachshund. She has blue eyes but does not appear to have any vision problems. Maxine came to us from a breeder and her social skills are very much in need of work. When Maxine first arrived we could not even catch her to hold her. She would eat outside by herself so she didn't have to be touched to go in a crate. Now she comes to us and lets us pick her up to feed her. She will also allow us to hold her occassionally, just for love. But this little gal will need additional work to become more comfortable in her own skin. Maxine will need to be an only pet so she will not have to compete for attention. She needs a home where someone will be around most of the time and where she won't be exposed to very small children. We have Maxine on Clomipramine to help her calm down and we feel this treatment may need to be a permanent part of her daily routine. Maxine's shots have been updated and she has tested negative for heartworms and she is on prevention. She loves to chase the shadows of birds in the yard and a privacy fence is a must for her.
