My name is Mariah!

Look at Mariah’s unique coloring. She’s a handsome girl with soft brown eyes to match her coloring. She’s a two year-old 58 pound lab/retriever mix that arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 11/5 as a stray. I was told by another volunteer before I even met her that she was sweet. I certainly concur. She did spend a lot of time looking over the wall and whining. I’m assuming she was looking for her owners. Because of this she will need a tall secure fence. She doesn’t appear to know the sit command and wasn’t particularly interested in my treats. But when she did take a treat she took it gently. She’s very agile as she climbed up on benches and our play equipment. She stayed close. When I sat down, she tried to get up on my lap. She walked very well on a leash looking back at me for approval. She didn’t have a problem meeting other dogs. She’s very sweet, gentle, and well mannered. She wants to be an inside dog so she can share her love with you.
