*Name: Mauro *Age: 8 months (born approximately September 2025) *Current Weight: 25lbs *Rescued from: Puerto Rico *Adoption fee: $650 (includes $50 refundable positive training commitment deposit) Meet Mauro! Mauro is a 6-month-old sheepdog/doodle mix with a striking black and tan coat and a fun, curious personality. Found as a stray, he's quickly showing that he's ready to leave that behind and settle into a home where he can be part of the action. At around 25 pounds, Mauro is right in that young, active stage—he enjoys exploring, staying busy, and being around people. He's the kind of dog who will do best with an adopter who wants an engaged companion and is ready to give him structure as he continues to learn. Mauro brings a great mix of energy and attentiveness. He's interested in what's going on around him and will thrive in a home that keeps him involved, whether that's getting outside, playing, or just being part of the daily routine. He's looking for a home that will give him consistency, guidance, and plenty of interaction. In return, Mauro will bring a loyal, upbeat presence that fits right into an active lifestyle. If you're looking for a young dog who is ready to jump in and be part of your world, Mauro could be your match. All of our dogs come with a 7-week group Beginner course at Bark n' Roll in North Reading included with adoption. If you are not local to North Reading you may opt for an included virtual private session with a certified positive trainer with Bark n' Roll. To apply to adopt, fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Please note that RnR is a volunteer-based organization. While volunteers review applications as quickly as possible, it is helpful if you review the following information about our adoption process: LISTED BREED(S) & AGE: We are taking our best guess on age, breed, and size when fully grown, based on the dog's physical appearance and what we might have learned about one or both parents. We rarely know a dog's exact age or full breed mix of dogs, as our information is usually limited. RNR's ADOPTION PROCESS: The first step in adopting or meeting one of our adoptable pups is to fill out an application at www.rescueallthedogs.org/adopt. Once we receive your application, one of our volunteers will contact you, review our adoption process, and answer any additional questions you may have. It is important to note that we do not go on a first-come-first-serve basis for adoptions but on the best fit for a family and, most importantly, the dog. MEETING ADOPTABLE DOGS: Meet and greets will not be scheduled until your adoption application is submitted and reviewed. APPLYING ONLINE: When completing an application, please do so from a computer (not a mobile device); make sure you answer ALL the questions in as much detail as possible and that you receive a confirmation email.
