Couldn't sleep either? Hi. Maple here.

I'm small but mighty, and I come alive in training class—give me structure and patience, and I'll show you depths of loyalty you never knew existed.

My notes say I'm a world-class cuddler, and I'd like that on the record.

I've been holding down the fort in San Jose, hoping someone like you would wander by.

Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.

With a little luck, Labor Day could be my first one in a real home — possibly with you, or with someone you send my way.

Thanks for spending a minute with me. I'll be right here, tail ready, hoping it's you. — Maple

About Maple

Meet Maple – The Petite Queen of Training Class! At 2 years old and 48 pounds, Maple is a compact pittie powerhouse with a heart just as big as her personality. This smart, soulful girl has been absolutely thriving in her foster home—and especially in training class, which is hands-down the highlight of her week! Maple lives for learning. She lights up when it's time to work and loves showing off all the skills she's mastered. She's bright, eager, and incredibly tuned in to her people. With guidance and consistency, Maple truly shines. A Star Student Maple has been putting in the work and it shows! She enjoys structure and does best with a clear, consistent schedule. She looks to her humans for direction and feels most confident when they advocate for her—especially when new people or dogs are approaching. She'll thrive with adopters who: Appreciate a smart, trainable dog Can continue reinforcing her training Provide calm, confident leadership Help her navigate new situations at her pace Training isn't just something Maple does—it's something she loves. It's a wonderful bonding experience for her and her person. Snuggles, Stuffy Toys & Squirrel Patrol When she's off duty, Miss Maple is all about the cozy life. She adores snuggling with her humans, happily curls up after a day of activity, and takes her stuffed toys very seriously. Neighborhood walks are another favorite pastime—though she's quite certain she can catch any squirrel in her path if given the opportunity! She's affectionate, loyal, and deeply devoted to her people. Just see how much on her IG posts @meyas_mutts! Her Ideal Home Maple is not usually dog-reactive out and about, but she is dog selective and will need a careful introduction and time to acclimate to living with another large breed dog. She does best with slow, thoughtful introductions to new people and dogs and appreciates when her family helps manage those interactions. Her perfect match will: Be an adult-only or older-teen household Be committed to continued training and structure Understand that slow introductions set her up for success Want a loving, loyal companion who forms a deep bond A Note about Adoption Events: While Maple loves to meet new folks one on one, Adoption Events can be too chaotic and unpredictable for this sensitive girl. Filling out an adoption application is the very best way to learn all about and meet Miss Maple. Ready to let Maple rule your heart?
