About Mermaid

Meet Mermaid, a spirited 5-month-old Plott Hound mix who’s ready to find her forever home! This spayed female weighs 22 lbs and is still growing, making her the perfect medium-sized companion. Born on April 8, 2026, she embodies the playful curiosity of a puppy and the heartwarming affection of a cuddle buddy. Mermaid joined us from Laredo, Texas, and she is relishing her new life outside the shelter. She adores exploring the yard, playing with toys, and soaking up every new experience. After spending the first part of her life in a shelter, everything from a soft bed to a loving family is a dream come true for her. Her house and crate training are going wonderfully; she sleeps through the night in her crate and is comfortable spending time there during the day. This clever girl is also friendly with both dogs and cats, making her a great fit for a household full of furry friends. Mermaid is on the lookout for a home where she can enjoy playing, learning, and, of course, curling up next to you after a day of adventures. If you’re ready to welcome a sweet and playful pup into your life, Mermaid is eager to become your new best friend. Ready to help this charming girl find her happily ever after?
