Could you be Mabel’s angel? This shy lady came to the Ranch after her first rescuer passed away, leaving several dogs. We don’t know anything about her past, but it seems likely that she’s had a rough time. Little by little, the sunnier side of her personality has emerged. She’s even had the help of a lovely foster experience. So we’re confident that Mabel will blossom in a home of her very own. All this sweet soul needs is a real family to give her the life she deserves.
Mabel has always been gentle with staff and volunteers despite her timidity when she first arrived. Nowadays, she walks on leash, takes treats, and genuinely enjoys petting and cuddles. She’s doing well in a home environment and knows Sit. Mabel is selective with other dogs. She can tolerate calm males who don’t push her around, but she’d likely prefer to be an only dog. She needs time to gain trust around new people, so a calm home without a lot of visitors would be her cup of tea. Older children who understand how to move quietly around a dog and respect boundaries should be fine.
Mabel isn’t a fussy gal: a shady yard to watch over, a comfortable bed, and an adopter who will help her feel safe, and she’ll count her lucky stars. If this sounds like you, call the Ranch to make an appointment to meet sweet Mabel today!
