My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Morticia!

As sweet as she is cute, Morticia is a bundle of energy and fun. She's *always* ready to be the life of the party and keep you laughing! Already have an energetic pup at home who wants you to endlessly throw their toys? Morticia could be the answer! She does great with others and has made a lot of friends (of both the human and doggo variety) during her time at the shelter.

Despite being such a sweet girl, Morticia hasn't found her forever people just yet. She will need a home that enjoys providing routine exercise and mental stimulation, but don't worry - The zoomies are sure to be followed by cozy couch snuggles! If you'd like to learn more about Morticia, call or stop by the shelter. She can't wait to meet you!
