Mama D. would like me to open with a few jokes about her.
Yo Mama is so cool, she makes ice cubes jealous.
Yo Mama is so nice, she tried to jump into the water but ended up walking on it.
Yo Mama is so sweet, if you hug her you’ll get a sugar high.
Mama D. is cool, and nice, and sweet, and available for adoption. She is about three years old, and good with dogs and cats. She walks pretty well on a leash and likes to go for car rides. She’s up for a good, long walk but then will crash and be happy to chill for the rest of the day.

She could stand to lose a few pounds, but don’t tell her that. She finds herself at the shelter through no fault of her own. If you’d like to learn more about Mama D., call the shelter at 207-743-8679 or fill out our application at www.responsiblepetcare.org/dogs. Meetings with dogs are by appointment with an approved application.
