About Mara

Mara is a female American Bulldog mix that is an unusual case for us. Her owner is homeless and in the process of getting him information for rescues to take his dogs, they got into a fight over food with each other. Mara is the more submissive sister and is 4 years old. She has been placed on antibiotics for her wounds and we will continue to monitor her. We will be evaluating her with other dogs during her stay with us. We are hoping conditions improve for their owner, but it doesn't appear likely. They are on owner hold until 5-8 and will be vetted 5-18 if we can find interest in them. They are both loving sweethearts.
