MARY

Meet Mary....aka Mamma Mary, a four year old shepherd or Belgian Malinois available for adoption. Mamma Mary’s body shows what might have been a tough existence prior to coming to us. Her frame is bony under her fur, ribs are somewhat visible, more than they should be, her belly sags from nursing puppies we’ve never met... but we know she gave them everything she had. Needless to say, she deserves far better her next go around. Getting to know her, beyond her visible reminders of her past... she’s kinda a sweet, goofy, playful gal that likes closeness, pets, stuffed toys, being told she’s a good girl and lastly, absolutely loves treat!! Let’s remember that the past does not dictate the future... Mary, just Mary will be a phenomenal addition to a family that loves shepherds/belgian Malinois, can give her space, training, fair expectations, and lots of love and playtime. She’s eager to meet and greet and get a taste of the good life. Can you help her with a share?
