Paris

Meet Paris – Your Not-So-Runway Model, All-Heart Mastiff Mix!! (case #6194)<br/><br/>Paris may share a name with a fashion capital, but she’s proudly rocking a more “wrinkly jowls” than “runway couture” look - and honestly, it just adds to her charm. This 3-year-old Mastiff cross came to the shelter as an unclaimed stray with another dog, and since then she’s been winning hearts left, right, and at every red light.<br/><br/>Paris is basically a giant puppy in a grown-dog body. When she’s out of her kennel, she’s all joy, bounce, and enthusiasm, complete with happy jumps and a “LET’S DO THINGS!” attitude. She’s strong (very strong), so she’ll need a confident, sturdy human who can handle her power while she learns the ropes. Obedience classes will be right up her alley - Paris is eager, food-motivated, and would love the chance to learn some manners and show off her brains. An EasyWalk harness would be a great tool to help manage her leash-pulling enthusiasm while she’s learning.<br/><br/>Adventure is Paris’s love language. She lives for walks and would be thrilled to join an active family who enjoys exploring the world with her. When it’s time to relax indoors, food puzzles are a fantastic way to keep her big brain busy and her jowls happily occupied.<br/><br/>And then there’s her snuggle game, which is truly elite. One volunteer reports that Paris knew she was getting a much shorter walk than usual but she was totally fine with it, as long as she could stretch up for a good snuggle. She happily stayed there, soaking up affection like it was her full-time job.<br/><br/>In fact, Paris has accidentally become a master of marketing. While wearing her “Adopt Me” leash near a busy intersection, she calmly sat through 30 - 40 drive-bys, charming passersby as traffic slowed at red lights. It turns out the perfect recipe for subversive marketing is a dog who’s patient, affectionate, and unbothered by the world going by - and Paris nailed it (wrinkles, drool, and all).<br/><br/>Sweet, strong, snuggly, and hilariously mastiff-y, Paris would make a wonderful companion for someone with the time, patience, and love to help her shine. If you’re looking for a dog who’s more heart than high fashion—and who gives exceptional hugs—Paris just might be your girl.
