Mama Mia Gump is pretty and petite - a loving, gentle lady!
She was surrendered by her previous owner to the Texas City Shelter along with her three puppies, Forrest, Jenny and Bubba. They are each looking for his or her forever home. Mama Mia appears to be Labrador Retriever mix, but at just under 29 lbs, she's relatively small for a Lab. She loves playing chase with other dogs, never reacts to cats, and has been great with her two foster human children, ages 10 and 14 years - wild, younger kids might scare her. She knows "sit," "down," and "stay," and will obey most of the time. She's very smart and would benefit from attending obedience classes with her new human(s) so you can learn lots more cool stuff together and further work on that important canine/human bond. Mia can climb a 5-foot wire fence, so it would be best if she were not out in the yard unsupervised. Daily leash walks and opportunities to play off-leash at a dog park or at doggie daycare will help take care of her exercise needs. Currently she seems to be afraid of being leashed. We don't know if it's just new to her or if there are bad memories attached to it, so her adopter will need to have patience and go slow with this. To exercise her mind, think puzzle toys and games. She is house trained, but does not like being crated. She likes going places and meeting new people, but can be anxious in the car. Mia is on the shy side and will sometimes cower and tuck her tail when you reach out to pet her, but she warms up quickly when she realizes you're a friend. She would be great as an only dog or with canine siblings, but because she really craves love and attention, she wouldn't mind at all if all your attention was on her. Her current foster feeds her separately because she will back away and let the other dogs eat her food. She would be a great dog for first time dog owners.

Sweet Mia LOVES to cuddle and is hoping that you do, too. If this pretty little lady has stolen your heart, fill out an application today and let her know!
