Mavis is an 11-month-old sweetheart weighing about 28 pounds, with the perfect mix of playful energy and loving companionship. She’s a fun-loving girl who enjoys playtime and has a few favorite toys that she’d be happy to bring along to her new home.
Mavis settles beautifully in her crate and truly relaxes there, making downtime easy. She’s also fully potty trained and listens well, showing just how smart and eager to please she is.T
This young pup has plenty of energy and would thrive with an active family who can give her daily walks, playtime, and the attention she loves. Mavis has been good with other dogs but prefers not to live cats. She’s been wonderful with the children in her foster home and has proven herself to be a gentle, sweet companion.
Mavis is a very special girl who is ready to bring joy, fun, and lots of love to a family of her own.
A note form Mavis: I’m house and crate trained. I go into my crate like the good girl I am when I’m told it’s beddy bye time and a couple treats. I really like bite size raw chilled carrots; they are so delicious.
I am very loving and cuddly to my humans. In other words, I’m the sweetest love bug ever. I especially like to give lots of love while my humans are watching tv. I pick a lap and keep my human comfy, cozy. I also like to go on leisurely walks. I do enjoy when people walk by us and tell me how cute and beautiful I am.
