Mater is a young boy with a sweet heart who is still learning to feel confident in the world around him. New environments can make him a bit nervous, especially indoor spaces since he previously lived mostly outdoors. However, with patience and reassurance, Mater has all the potential to truly blossom! Once he feels comfortable, Mater shows just how loving and loyal he can be. He enjoys spending time with his favorite people and has a fun, energetic side that shines through as he settles in. Mater is looking for a patient home that can help guide him as he learns new routines and builds confidence. Because of his sensitive nature, we are requiring that any children in the home are age 10 or older. Mater can be selective with other dogs, so if there is another dog in the home, a meet-and-greet at the shelter will be required to ensure a good match. He has also shown a prey drive toward poultry, so he will require a home with no livestock. With time, understanding, and a supportive family, Mater is ready to grow into a loving and devoted companion! Adoption Price: $150
