Labrador Retriever and Anatolian Shepherd Dogs Available for Adoption in Spokane, Washington

Meet Mabel!

This sweet girl came to the Mission as a stray, wondering onto one of our fosters property! He found the right place, and the foster scooped him up to search for his owner. Unfortunately, no owner has come by for her and she's now going up for adoption. Her estimated birthdate is 04/21/2017 and she's currently quite underweight at 71lbs.

We are just getting to know Mabel but upon intake, she's been easy to handle. She underwent a full groom and remained silent in her kennel while she waited her turn! We were impressed with her skills considering, and we are in love with her calm demeanor. She did get to go on a short leash walk and did very well. Mabel seems to understand basic commands and wants to please her handler.

We're assessing her animal to animal skills and we will update further as we get to know her better.

Mabel's adoption fee is waived as she is a senior, and she will come home spayed, dewormed, vaccinated, and microchipped. She will also come with her medical records and an ID tag. If you're interested in Mabel, please begin by submitting an adoption application at www.murcismission.org.

Thank you!
