Mary Puppins is a young Shar Pei mix with perfectly squishy rolls and a big, lovable snout. Deaf since birth, she doesn’t miss a beat—her world is full of energy and zest. She lives for zoomies in the yard, chases after canine friends, and keeps everyone entertained with her silly antics. Mary’s expressive face and a sharp nose help her keep up, and her ability to sense vibrations means she still catches the rhythm of a household. She’s already made herself an anchor for anxious rescue dogs, helping them gain confidence by example, but she’s now searching for someone who will help her continue blossoming. Mary is sweet and eager to learn, though she’ll need an adopter who’s ready to put in the work with training and routines. She isn't yet house trained but keeps her kennel mostly clean and thrives with structure. On leash, she’s manageable, but her favorite pastime is running off her endless energy in a safe, fenced yard. Mary gets along well with dogs who can handle her boisterous play style—slow introductions are best. Though she’s only briefly met cats, she’s done all right. She can be protective of high-value food and toys, so these should be managed with attention, especially with other pets or older, respectful kids who understand her needs. At the end of every play session, she sleeps in the most ridiculous positions—on her back or curled up tight—guaranteed to make you laugh. After being found wandering with her best friend Lucy Mae (who’s since found a home), Mary is ready to settle down. If you want a loyal, joyful, slightly silly companion and can provide training and patience, she might be your match. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
