Notes:
Matilda is an adorable girl who was trapped from a feral pack with her 2 siblings. Her siblings went to a shelter foster and we helped her. Matilda will be most comfortable with another K9 friend, she is still nervous and needs socialization. She adores our medical girl Mayflower, a beagle. They are best friends. She thrives with outside time playing or sunbathing. She is great in the car and does well on the adventures she has gone on so far. When roaming inside all items need to be placed away as she's a puppy who will take items she shouldn't.

Available for adoption anywhere in the US or Canada with transport provided
