Description
One of Matna’s most defining traits is her love for food—perhaps a little too much. Her fondness for treats and hearty meals has led to her becoming overweight, and she would benefit greatly from a balanced diet and a tailored plan to help her shed some pounds. This journey to better health could be a wonderful bonding experience for her and her future family, as she learns to enjoy nutritious meals and gentle, low-impact activities.
While Matna is loving and attentive, she is not the most enthusiastic about physical exercise. Walks are a challenge for her; she tends to prefer to return home rather than explore for long. This reluctance likely stems from her lack of experience with the outside world, having lived in the shelter for so long. A patient and understanding family who can help her build confidence on walks, even with short and positive experiences, will be key to her success. Her leash training journey will require encouragement and consistency, but with time, she may come to enjoy gentle strolls at her own pace.
Matna is a social butterfly when it comes to other dogs. She is great with her canine companions and would do well in a home with other calm and friendly dogs. Her gentle and tolerant nature also makes her a wonderful match for children, provided they are kind and respectful of her needs. While she has not been tested with cats, this can be arranged to assess her compatibility.
Despite her slower pace and laid-back lifestyle, Matna’s loving personality shines through. She thrives on affection and will eagerly soak up every bit of attention you offer. Whether it’s curling up on a cozy spot by your side or enjoying a quiet moment of companionship, Matna will bring warmth and comfort to any home.
Matna is spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, ready to begin the next chapter of her life. She needs a special family who understands her unique needs as a senior dog. A calm and nurturing environment with a focus on her health and well-being would be ideal.
Adopting Matna means more than giving her a home; it means giving her the chance to finally experience the love, security, and joy she has waited her entire life for. If you’re searching for a loyal, affectionate companion who will fill your home with unconditional love, Matna is ready to meet you and become the heart of your family.
