Ziggy
Meet Ziggy! Ziggy was originally a Maeday Dog in 2023 named Mozart. He is a 4 year old, 14lb good boy with a sad story. He was adopted to a loving family who just had lost the husband/dad of the family and getting a new dog was helping them heal. Cut to October 2025, Ziggy’s adoptive mother reached out to us and told us that she was diagnosed with cancer. And that in the last two years she adopted a dog from North Central Shelter. She is trying to manage going through cancer treatment while still being a mom to her kids & responsible for two dogs, who of course need walks and consistency. She asked if we could find a temporary foster, which we posted about and ultimately they ended up with some of our trainers. At first we thought we were only going to have them for a month or two, but as time went on sadly, her diagnosis got worse. We were all very hopeful that the dogs would return to their home eventually, but a couple of weeks ago we found out that the update and the cancer has spread and she is sadly in hospice. Ziggy doesn’t need to be adopted with Tulip.

Taters
Meet Taters! This 3ish year old shitzu is the sweetest guy. He loves toys, other dogs and is pretty easy going. He always has a smile and will fit into any living situation. He came to us with some skin issues and allergies, but is quickly healing. He is around 15lbs!
Goalie
Meet Goalie! This little goal keeper, loves to play, is up for anything and is a waggy happy boy. He is part of the three shitzu’s that we save from north central shelter as part of clear the shelters for the 4th of July. He saw the vet for an eye ulcer, that will soon heal, but he may have some cloudiness in one eye for the rest of his life. Otherwise, he is healthy and we can’t wait to see him once his fur has grown in. He is about 5 years old and 14lbs.
Ike
Meet the sweetest senior boy, Ike! We were told that he was an owner surrender at the shelter and the past owners said that he is 12 years old. He seems like he is hypoallergenic and he was shaved down at the shelter, but he naturally has very long, shaggy fur. He loves other dogs, is very sweet and gentle, and just wants a place to rest his head and old bones.

Pitzie
Hello from Maeday dog, Pitzie! This 8 year old spayed chihuahua is about 8lbs and full of life. She loves her tiny toy balls, loves her crate, loves her people and is very well behaved. She is potty trained, likes other dogs and we suspect would be chill with cats.
Pitzie had lived with her family her entire life since she was a puppy and after her human dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s, it was becoming too difficult to give Pitzie the care she needed. Her mom made the difficult decision to relinquish her and it wasn’t without many tears. Pitzie has adjusted well into her foster home and she would love a chill home where she can be spoiled and loved. #maedaypitzie
Soleil
Meet Soleil! This girl is fully of sunshine and loves everyone she meets. We saved her from the shelter after she was thrown from a two story window and the shelter staff reached out to us. Luckily her injuries are healing and shouldn’t bother her in the future. She is 1-2 years old and 12lbs. #maedaysoleil
Muumuu
Muumuu is the sweetest kitten. She was a solo kitten at a rural shelter and we couldn’t say no. She is great with other cats, comfortable with dogs and is great with her litter box. She is healthy, cuddly and will make a great companion in any (indoor only) living situation. #maedaymuumuu
Sammi
Meet Sammi! This sweet 5 year old, 60 lb good girl is PERFECT! We saw her waiting at the shelter with her crinkled ear and knew she was a Maeday dog. We don’t much about her story or how she ended up in the shelter, but someone loved her at some point. She is potty trained, can sit, can shake and probably knows lots of other commands that we haven’t tried. She loves all other dogs, big and small and is fine with cats. Her ear had a bad infection, but is on the mend. #maedaysammi
Link
Meet Link! This eight year-old boy was found as a stray, covered in fleas and dirt. Nobody ever claimed him, but he clearly has lived in a home at some point in his life because he is a wonderful houseguest. He has potty trained, great with other dogs, hypoallergenic and is full of personality. #maedaylink
