Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Mariela is a beautiful, snuggly girl that is ready for a family or her very own!🐾
This pretty girl with floppy ears is gentle with the little dogs in her foster home as well as the 11 year old human-daughter! Her foster mom describes her as goofy, playful and relaxed and says she loves lounging on the couch. 💤
Mariela loves her humans, but she takes a little time to warm up to new people and can come off skittish at first. She warms up quickly though and once she does, she is ALL SNUGGLES! She is a hungry hungry hippo and loves to eat food, snacks and destroy toys🤣
This beautiful pup does wonderfully with new people and dogs after proper introductions (with snacks!) She is very sweet, gentle & loving with her people. Mariela would do best with another dog in the household to gain confidence and as a playmate! She will also need a patient adopter who will work with her on socialization and confidence building! We would love to see her in a home with older children and parents who want a forever companion.💕
