About MATILDA

Matilda is a sweet girl who was born right here with us on March 15, 2025, making her over 400 days old. Black pups can sometimes be overlooked, but Matilda is a true gem!

If you're searching for a loyal shadow companion who will be by your side through thick and thin, Matilda is the one for you.
