Mavis

NO LONGER ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS<br/><br/>Introducing Mavis, around 7-year-old Retriever with the steady sweetness of a true American sweetheart. With her soft brown eyes and calm disposition, she’s the kind of gal who wins hearts without making a fuss—content to curl up on the couch, lean in for gentle affection, and keep the household running on good old-fashioned warmth. <br/><br/>Mavis is a model citizen, fully house-trained and polite as a picture. She waits by the door when duty calls, stays trustworthy and quiet when left alone, and strolls along on her leash as if she were taking part in a Sunday afternoon parade. When the weather turns snowy, she lights right up—trotting around with that classic, carefree joy that never goes out of style. <br/><br/>She’s got a playful streak too. Mavis proudly carries her stuffed toys wherever she goes, like a kid toting her favorite prize from the dime store. She gets along swell with dogs big and small, and she’s just as lovely with children—gentle, patient, and always ready to join the fun without ever overstepping her manners. <br/><br/>Come nighttime, she settles onto her dog bed with the quiet contentment of someone who knows she’s safe and loved. Her foster says her greatest triumph has been the simple act of giving her trust—and what a victory that is. If you’re looking for a loyal companion with classic charm and the kind of heart they don’t make much anymore, Mavis is your girl. <br/><br/><br/>Interested in adopting this dog?
