MARA        FEMALE        SHIH TZU        DOB 10/5/11      ADOPTED

APRIL 2018: Newly arrived, little Mara is terrified. She came to us with Mitzi and Aubrey, so they have each other while they get settled into rescue. She is a beautiful girl, looking forward to happier days for her.

MAY 2018: Mara is slowly beginning to explore the rescue, and will even venture outside from time to time. For now she is content to spend her time with her rescue buddies. We will give her all the time she needs to warm up to us. There is a sweet loving girl inside of her that really wants to come out!

JANUARY 2019:  Mara is allowing us to hold her now though we must be very cautious about approaching her.  Once she is in your lap, she begins to relax.  She is such a sweet girl!

MARCH 2019:  It's almost spring and Mara is ready for her forever home. She is the sweetest girl, and look at that face! We are still working on leash training, so she will definitely need a home with a fenced yard.

JUNE 2019: Sweet Mara has made great progress in the last few weeks. She has become quite the little cuddlebug. She now greets new visitors and will approach us, tail wagging, hoping for some lap time. What a transformation!

Mara has been fully vetted, which includes microchip, spay, dental, and vaccinations.

She will need a home with a fenced yard and no small children. She gets along great with dogs her size.
Medical Expenses for Mara through December 31, 2019 were $556.
​Mara's adoption fee is $250.

Home visit required so you must live within a 1 1/2 hour drive of Belton, MO.
