Meet Mara! Mara is a beautiful and sweet terrier/aussie shep mix girl who is between 2-3 and weighs around 45 lbs. Mara was found as a stray and has been learning that humans and homes are good things. She absolutely loves other dogs and feels very comfortable around them - cats too! She will snuggle on the couch with any kitty. She has a lot of energy and will need a loving and patient owner to help her navigate her new life. She does. not do well on a leash at the moment so a fenced in yard is a must. She will give you unconditional love as long as you are willing to be patient and kind. 

The adoption fee of $200 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed!
