My name is
Maria!

Meet Maria: Your Pocket-Sized Protector and Adventure Buddy!

Maria is a small, spunky pup with a big heart and an even bigger sense of loyalty. In her foster home she's been fully house-trained.

At first, Maria might feel a little unsure around other dogs and cats, but give her some time, and she’ll soon find her groove and get along with everyone.

Once she’s decided you’re her person, she’s all in. She’s the kind of dog who will curl up around your neck like a furry scarf, growling softly to let others know, “This human is mine to protect!”

Don’t let her small size fool you—Maria’s an adventurer at heart. She’s an excellent eater and an even better hiker. Whether it’s scaling fallen trees or navigating tricky trails, Maria craves the challenge and tackles every obstacle with confidence.

When she’s not exploring the great outdoors, Maria has a softer side. She’s a fashionista who loves a little luxury—Juicy Couture is her vibe but any sweaters will work!

If you’re looking for a loyal, adventurous, and stylish companion, Maria is ready to join your life’s journey. Could you be her forever person? Apply today at mpravl.org !

Maria is spayed, microchipped, and vaccinated! Her adoption fee is $300. 

All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information.

Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.

Mountain Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit tax deductible charity (EIN 82-3039637) located in Asheville, NC.
