Meet Little Mamma, an 11-year-old, female shepherd mix. She’s a big, beautiful girl with a smooth, black and tan coat with hints of white around her brown eyes and floppy ears. She’s an older gal, so she’s a calm, gentle girl who enjoys taking it easy. Despite her age, she still has some pep in her step and loves to play with toys. She likes hanging out in the sunshine, cuddling with people and curling up for naps in bed. She has some arthritis, so she would do best in a home where she won’t have to climb stairs often. She does well with children, other dogs and is an all-around sweetheart. If you’re looking for a laidback, loving lady to spend your days with, she’s the one for you. Come meet her today.
