About: Maple
Hello! My name is Maple! I'm a mixed breed pup with a sweet personality, ready to give you all my love and loyalty. At 12lbs., I'm the perfect size, don't you think? I just arrived on 1/17, so my foster is still getting to know my personality. But from what she can tell so far, I'm as sweet as my name! I'm also super happy and have loved everyone I've met. I seem to bond instantly and I'm a real cuddlebug! I am housebroken and get along well with other dogs and cats. I haven't met any little kids yet, but my foster doesn't expect I'll have an issue based on my personality so far (older kids have been A-OK!). I really love people and I'm not a fan of being alone - a family with someone home most of the time would be the best fit for me! Overall I'm really well behaved and should need minimal training. Come meet me, I promise I'll steal your heart instantly!

This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. OPH will treat the dog and provide two weeks of recovery time prior to adoption. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.

Maple Maple is currently being fostered in Leesburg, VA.

All adult dogs, cats, and kittens are altered prior to adoption. Puppies too young to be altered at the time of adoption must be brought to our partner vet in Ashland, VA for spay or neuter paid for by Operation Paws for Homes by 6 months of age. Adopters may choose to have the procedure done at their own vet before 6 months of age and be reimbursed the amount that the rescue would pay our partner vet in Ashland.

This dog's bio is based off the experiences of the foster and/or volunteers of OPH as well as any information that we received from the shelter or previous owner. This is very important because it means that while they may act one way in the foster’s home, you may experience something different in your home.
