Hi, I'm Big Bertha! I arrived at the shelter as a stray, and since no one came looking for me, I am now searching for my true forever home. I was pretty scared when I first arrived and didn't quite understand that the folks here just wanted to be my friends, but it didn't take me long to find my groove. While some new things still make me "pause" and listen, I am getting braver every day in this big new world! I absolutely adore people and truly believe that a good belly rub is life's greatest pleasure. At a "sturdy" 80 pounds and 5 years young, I am the perfect age-I'm housebroken, incredibly docile, smart, and will do just about anything for a tasty treat! If you have the patience and time to help me settle into a new routine, I promise to be the best companion ever and fill your days with long walks and big smiles! Apply to meet me today!
NOTE: every dog, cat and child will react differently to a new pet, so proper and safe introductions are always important for a smooth and successful transition.

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
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.
