Mariposa is a sweet and curious 36-pound-girl who loves people and exploring
outside. She is affectionate and cuddly with her fosters, and friendly with other dogs, but generally prefers the attention of humans.
Mariposa is easy-going on leash, somewhat cautious, but outgoing around others, and is currently working on her house-training
with her current foster. She can be vocal when left alone, so someone who is willing to help her with this would be best. She is gentle but enthusiastic with kids.
Are you looking for a loving and energetic companion, who enjoys daily walks, lots of

ABOUT: HOUND DOG BREED
The hound dog breed is a diverse group known for their incredible hunting abilities and keen sense of smell. These dogs are esteemed for their athleticism, endurance, and loyalty, making them excellent companions for active individuals and families alike. With a rich history of assisting hunters in tracking and trailing game, hounds possess a strong prey drive and a distinctive bay when on the hunt. Hounds come in various sizes and coat types, each with its unique characteristics, but they all share a remarkable intelligence and a friendly disposition.
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
