About Aretha

Meet Aretha, the dog who fully believes she deserves the royal treatment her name implies. With her angelic face and clever personality, she approaches life like a superstar ready to take the stage. Aretha thrives on learning and enjoys having her humans engaged in her adventures. She sleeps in her crate like it’s her throne and is well on her way to mastering potty training, especially if you stick to her routine. While she adores other dogs, she can be a tad bossy during play; she is still figuring out how to balance her charm without ruffling feathers. Aretha has a knack for climbing—she doesn’t want to escape, just to be near her favorite humans. Kids are fine by her, but she's still getting used to the fact that not everyone enjoys her puppy teeth. This spirited girl needs a family that can keep her challenged and continue to mold her manners while providing love as she grows from a tiny troublemaker to a magnificent Mastiff. Aretha has been spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and is current on all age-appropriate vaccinations. She is fostering in Greenville, SC, waiting for someone special to take her home.
