Muriel is a lively, affectionate two-year-old mixed breed with a big personality and energy to match. She loves toys—especially tennis balls—car rides, and belly rubs, flipping over the moment she thinks someone might indulge her. Muriel’s play style is enthusiastic and can sometimes be a little much for small children, though she means well and truly enjoys their company. She gets along well with other dogs and shows friendly interest without being confrontational. Having spent time in foster, Muriel is crate trained and possibly kennel trained, which helps with her otherwise exuberant approach to life. She can’t resist a game of fetch and always brings the ball back, and her eagerness for activity means she’ll thrive with a family that can match her high energy. Walks, runs, hikes, and any adventure are right up her alley. Muriel pulls on the leash at times, just excited to go and see the world. She’ll need someone willing to invest in continued exercise and enrichment—as well as chew toys, since her youthful spirit includes a strong urge to chew. If you’re looking for a people-focused, playful companion who’s always ready for action but happy to crash on the couch beside you after, Muriel might be your new best friend.
