My personality

My story

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

Mavis is a 15 month old (as of January) beauty that came from a home of abuse and neglect.
She spent much time in a crate with food and water withheld if she did not pee on command.
Nevertheless, she is an absolute sweetheart, who just craves affection and a gentle person to teach her all the finer things in life. She came to Rescue with her ribs showing, but she is now filled out, vetted, and her hair shines, and she is just gorgeous!! She is playful and fun and good with dogs and cats.
She learns quick and wants to please, and if she gets nervous, she will pancake to the ground.
This girl could really use a gentle Home that shows her love and compassion and patience… in return, she will be the best dog you ever had, completely devoted to you. She is currently 45 pounds, needs to be lifted into vehicles, and is learning that leashes mean she gets to go someplace fun. She is a fast learner and just SO beautiful!!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

We welcome all adopters, all experience of ownership levels, all ages above 21 years old for primary adopters, but most of all....everyone who has love to give and a home to share! There is a required adoption application so that we can make sure each adoption is a good match for both the humans and the dog. Upon adoption approval, there is a contract to sign stating no abuse will come to the animal. The adoption fee covers the pet's animal shelter release fee, vet check, spay or neuter, age-appropriate shots, heartworm test if age appropriate, age-appropriate parasite prevention, vet records, leash, collar and transport. The fee slightly varies depending on vet needs for each individual animal. Please inquire for price.
