Mavis

Mavis is a beautiful six-year-old, 55-pound herding dog mix with distinctive adorable tan eyebrows! She was originally listed as an Australian Cattle Dog, but with her black, tan, and white coloring and those classic Kelpie-like markings, we suspect she may have some Australian Kelpie in her family tree. She likely has some husky in her too, she's a vocal girl! Whatever the mix, Mavis is lovely!<br/><br/>Mavis enjoys being with people and is happiest when she has someone to accompany. One of her favorite activities is trotting right alongside her person on a walk. She is calm around other dogs when out and about, making her a delightful walking companion.<br/><br/>Mavis can be reactive toward other dogs when she is behind a barrier, such as in her kennel or a yard. This is a common shelter behavior, it's an overstimulating place! Her behavior is quite different on walks, where she remains calm around dogs. As a herding dog, Mavis also enjoys having a job to do, so she would thrive with an adopter who enjoys training and wants to give her opportunities to use her brain and natural talents.<br/><br/>Mavis is good company, a wonderful walking buddy, and a girl with plenty of potential. She is ready to find a family who will appreciate her unique personality and give her the structure, training, and companionship she loves.<br/><br/>Mavis’s adoption fee is $250 and includes spay/neuter, age-appropriate vaccinations, microchipping, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital.<br/><br/>To meet Mavis, please call 602-971-1334 to schedule an appointment. Walk-ins are also welcome Thursday through Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
