About Mara

Mara is a delight wrapped up in a playful spirit. At about a year old and weighing 40 pounds, she brings joy to all her playtime adventures. Although she has spent a significant amount of time in a rescue, her happy, optimistic attitude shines through. Initially, she might seem a bit aloof, but her love for balls reveals her true nature. Patient adopters will discover that she’s eager to share her favorite ball and curl up for a cuddle. This lovely girl keeps herself entertained when you're busy, making her a great fit if you prefer a more independent dog. Mara enjoys car rides and is always ready for new adventures. Located in Oxford, MI, she would thrive in a loving forever home. Ideally, she needs a family where children are at least 13 years old. While she gets along with other dogs, her playful approach may be perceived as “rude” by them, so it's best if she’s the only dog in the home. Mara has been attending a local training class where she's been soaking up knowledge. She's already learned commands like sit, down, stay, and more. Come meet her, but remember she’ll need an owner who is at least 21 years old. Mara is dreaming of a family who will love her as much as she loves to play. Start your journey together! Apply now.
