Molly is an AMAZING dog! She is very relaxed and just wants to hang out. She’s not much of a lap dog, but loves to relax on her bed, chew on her bone and watch tv. Molly is a rescue that I took in and I am now looking for her forever home. She is great with kids and plays well with my other dog. Doberman/Pit Mix Up to date on all shots and has been spayed.

Story
Found behind my house with her three puppies. We’ve been calling her Mama (not very original). She’s very sweet and excitable when she’s around her puppies. When she’s alone all she wants is to have her belly rubbed. Never shown any signs of aggression. We’ve been crate training her along with her puppies and she is smart enough to not do her business in the crate which has made tending to her much easier. She was likely someone’s pet and has the temperament to reflect that. We tried finding her owner but had no success. She has been fixed like all of her puppies and they all need a good home. The puppies are all girls as well and all super sweet and energetic. The white one is Heidi, the one with two brown eye patches is Haven, the one with one brown eye patch is Belle. Haven’t seen any signs of aggressor or anything troubling from them. They are not as well crate/potty trained as mom but they’re young so it’s to be expected.
