Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Maw Maw is a repeat offender to the shelter. She was arrested when she was caught holding up traffic in the middle of a busy street a while back. She was adopted but then recently returned because Maw Maw did not like the other dog at the house. She got along fine with the dogs at the shelter but probably would do best as an only dog. While I was photographing her Maw Maw decided that she would split the joint and took off running down the road, looking back at us the whole time. Which caused the director of the shelter to have to jump in his car and go get her..She is just too funny, she talked to me the whole time I was photographing her. As her name suggests, Maw Maw is an "old timer". I would estimate she is at least 9 years old, but she is full of life and very healthy. She loves to chase tennis balls. In fact, she can hardly ever bee seen without a tennis ball in her mouth. She's a very sweet old gal and would make someone a great companion. Senior dogs are the best because they are out of the puppy stage and have so much to teach us. Maw Maw must go to someone very special because she is very special and a favorite of everyone that comes in the shelter. If you could open your heart and home to Maw Maw, please contact the shelter, info is below.There are NO ADOPTION FEE'S at WBRP Animal Shelter. Applicants are carefully screened.
