Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week: Are you Mavis' Angel?

I'm a sweet girl looking for my angel
Not all shelter pets are created equal. 
According to a recent survey by Petfinder, older pets and those who have special needs have the hardest time finding homes.
That's why we're introducing you to Mavis, a sweet 8+-year-old Corgi mix who currently lives at Mostly Mutts animal rescue near Atlanta, Ga.

Mavis, who looks to be a little "Puggish" as well, is a sweet little girl -- about 25 pounds -- who's looking for a quiet, loving home. She loves belly rubs and playing with her toys and is quite happy taking nice, long naps during the day.

While she is a healthy little dog, Mavis has  "dry eye" and will require drops twice a day. Mostly Mutts founder Paige O'Neill says, "she allows me to do it as long as she gets a treat and some play time after!"

Dry eye is easily treated -- I know because I had a Lhasa Apso who needed eye drops -- and it became an easy and important part of his day-to-day routine. With a little practice, it became a piece of cake for my Lhasa Thai, and he always looked forward to the ensuing treats! Thai lived a long and happy 16 years before Cosmo Havanese came along.
While Mavis may be considered less adoptable because of her eye condition and her mature age, anyone with an 8-year-old dog will tell you it's the best age ever! She's a perfect partner for someone looking for a loving companion!
This week also is Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week, the latest Be The Change For Pets challenge from the folks at BlogPaws. We're hoping that with a little extra awareness this week, Mavis and other pets like her in shelters across the country will find their forever homes. To check out more stories about less adoptable pets, scroll down to the blog roll below.

  7. So ironic, really - it's the same for pets as for children - "older" or "special needs" in both cases have a harder time finding homes... there's a whole psychological thing going on there, it seems ("I only want a baby, or perfect, or...")

    In the meantime, fingers crossed for Mavis and other doggies looking for their homes.

  26. Being too long in the game may result in more bonus effects than those who play for a shorter period of time. For example, people who play half an hour are more likely to receive bonuses than those who only play for 10 minutes. akbet25

  31. "Adopt a Less Adoptable Pet Week: Are you Mavis' Angel" is an inspiring and heartwarming initiative that shines a light on pets in need. It encourages us all to consider adopting those animals who may have been overlooked due to special needs or circumstances. Being Mavis' Angel means making a positive impact in the lives of these deserving animals and finding the perfect companion, regardless of their challenges. It's a beautiful reminder of the power of compassion and the difference we can make in the world of animal adoption.
