Mabel Loves Stuffies

Meet Mabel, a sweet brindle-and-white beauty with a heart as soft as her favorite squeaky toy! Mabel is a boxer-pitty mix (breed not promised!) with golden eyes that sparkle with sweetness and just a hint of sass. She's the total package – equal parts gentle snugglebug and goofy playmate. Her dream day involves snoozing on a cozy couch, collecting belly rubs, squeaking her beloved stuffies, and basking in the love of her people. Mabel gives her whole heart once she trusts you, and once she knows you're safe, get ready for melt-your-heart cuddles and her signature "Mabel lean," where she presses her whole body against you for hugs. She loves love and is the perfect match for someone who wants a calm, affectionate companion who's happiest just being near you. Mabel enjoys the company of other dogs who have good manners; she's kind of like the hall monitor of the playgroup, gently reminding everyone to keep things civilized. She has a soft spot for respectful, chill doggy friends but could just as happily be the only spoiled princess soaking up all the attention. Mabel also met a kitty friend and did great; she was curious but polite, choosing to quietly observe instead of chase. With a slow introduction and some supervision, she could share her home with a confident cat buddy. This gorgeous girl is low-energy at heart, more of a Netflix-and-snack gal than a 5-mile-hike type. She's gentle, easy to correct, and loves routine. Because she can get a little unsure of other dogs while on leash, she'd do best in a home (no apartments, please!) where she can relax and enjoy life without too many leashed meet-and-greets.

Ideal Home

A calm, loving human, possibly with a respectful dog friend or a cat, who can offer a cozy couch and endless squeaky toys. Mabels ideal home is not an apartment due to potential leash reactivity with other dogs.

Ongoing Health

Mabel is a healthy dog.

Training & Support

Mabel is easy to correct and loves routine. She can get a little unsure of other dogs while on leash, so a home environment where she can avoid too many leashed interactions is ideal.
