Collie (short coat) : : Female : : Adult : : Large
Maria Canina is a VERY special girl! Maria was spotted by an RMCSR volunteer in a shelter in Spain. Yup, that is what we said, Spain. When she inquired about rescuing Maria she was told that she had been in the shelter for THREE years! Our volunteer was so moved by her story that she began the long, challenging process of importing Maria to the United States.
Maria is a tri-colored spayed female smooth Collie mix, perhaps mixed with Husky. She is about 5 years of age. She is house-broken and crate-trained, and we are working on her obedience commands in English. Living in a noisy shelter for three years was probably very stressful so she would be best suited as a single pet in a household with no small children. She is healthy, incredibly affectionate, playful and self-assured. Maria loves to run and jump in piles of snow and could be the right companion for an active couple or as a best friend for a single person.
