Meet Matilda

Meet Matilda!!!! This loving and happy pup was found running on the highway in Mississippi. The person who saw her stopped and opened the door to the car, and she jumped right in. Matilda could not stop giving him kisses for saving her. They made sure nobody came to claim her and then let us know. Now that she is with our rescue, we would love to find her a forever family who will love her and have lots of fun with her. Matilda will make a fantastic family member with kids, other dogs and even cats. She is a typical puppy who loves runny around and chasing toys. If you throw them for her, she will run after it but not bring it back. Lololol!! Matilda will run back to you prancing with a smile instead of bringing you the toy. If you want a pup to make you laugh and keep you active, Matilda is the girl for you. She loves going on walks to meet everyone. Nobody is a stranger to her. Being that she is still a young pup, we would recommend training for her. This way she can learn her commands and grow to be an amazing girl that she already is. She will need to be kept socialized, loved, brought out every few hours and kept exercised. Please make sure you are ready for a pup before applying. Matilda is ready to find her forever family. She cannot wait to be part of your daily activities and family functions. Apply for this lovebug today!!!
