About Mable

Mable is a 7-year-old female Lab and the daughter of Marley and Max. She has been through a lot, having been left behind when her previous owners moved. Now at the shelter, Mable is adjusting to a new and bustling environment, which can be overwhelming for her. Friendly and sociable, she has lived with children and other dogs, and she does get along well with them. Mable enjoys her meals and is working on her leash manners, ensuring her kennel remains tidy. Given some time and space, she's likely to blossom even more. Currently, Mable is accepting applications for Foster-to-Adopt while we complete her veterinary care. This will allow her to settle in and find her forever home once she is fully vetted. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
