Meet Maggie and Marley!

Following a move to Squamish (from downtown Vancouver), I knew our next
step was to add a dog to our family. We adopted Maggie (originally
Myrtle) from WAG in March 2013. At the time, she was figured to be about
9 months old and came in to the shelter with a litter of 5 puppies! My
husband and I both fell in love with her the first time we saw her
picture on the website. We knew we could use some help with her
adjustment to family life so we immediately enlisted Maren’s help! With
her tips and support, Maggie flourished. She’s still a bit shy and
apprehensive in new situations but warms up pretty quickly & is very
eager to please.
A year later, we once again found ourselves on the WAG website. Maggie had brought so much love & joy to our lives, we were excited to add another furry member to our family. This time, we opted for a 9 week old puppy. Lucky for us, Maggie’s mothering skills quickly resurfaced and our two pups bonded quickly. Also, since Maggie was still really only a puppy herself (not even 2 years old), they became fast playmates! Once again, we sought Maren’s support and enrolled Marley in the first puppy class we could.
