It’s not uncommon for dogs to be stuck at an animal shelter for a long time. Some dogs are often overlooked or ignored because of their breed or personality. Fortunately, even dogs who are considered unpopular still eventually get adopted.
Maggie is a pit bull who was rescued after a hurricane. She lived in an animal shelter for approximately three years. Sadly, it’s common for a dark-colored older pit bull like her to be unpopular or unwanted.
One day a woman named Jen showed interest in Maggie and she ended up adopting the dog. However, there were a few negative reactions from Jen’s family when she took home a pit bull. Jen’s mother, in particular, was terrified of Maggie and would lock herself in her room when she saw the dog.
Maggie sensed that Jen’s mother, Gigi, was scared of her. So every time she saw the woman, she would lie on her back to convince the woman that she was harmless. That did the trick because Gigi eventually learned to adore Maggie. They ended up becoming very close to the point where Gigi would look forward to hanging out with the dog.
Aside from her mother, Jen’s boyfriend is another person that Maggie is exceptionally close with. The pit bull would often be cuddling with that man. Sometimes she would see her boyfriend asleep in the living room with Maggie in his arms.
Jen is completely enamored with her dog. She would go as far as to cancel her vacation if Maggie gets sick on the same day. She has done that once before and would have no trouble doing it again.
Everywhere Jen goes, Maggie is there with her, acting silly. The dog’s presence makes it easy for Jen to feel good, even on bad days. There’s nothing but fun and laughter when they are together.
