Breed: Mixed breed

Sex: Female

Age: 3 years approx

Size: Medium

Color: Grey/blue and white

Coat: Smooth

Children: OK with older children 10+ years

Other Dogs: OK with dogs

Notes: Muriel is a beautiful 3 year old Mountain Cur mix. She is very timid, but very accepting of love if you are the one initiatin. Muriel will need a patient, quiet home, where she can actually learn to be a dog, and that the world is not a scary place.

We would prefer for her to go to a home with another dog, as she shows more confidence with a canine companion by her side (or her own Emotional Support Animal. Kids 10 years or older would be ideal, just because little kid screams would be too much for her sensitive little self.

If you would like to give Muriel a chance, please give us a call at (540)921-2053 or send us a message. Her adoption fee is $155 which covers her spay, microchip and basic vaccines!

Within 48 hours, 2 female dogs were picked up within 3 miles of each other. Both have docked tails and similar markings, which led us to think they could be related. But when we introduced them, it was VERY OBVIOUS they knew each other and missed one another.

This dog has been available for 13 days

If you are interested in Muriel phone 540-921-2053 for an appointment to meet her at Giles County Animal Shelter. We are open Monday - Saturday 12pm-4pm by appointment only, Closed Sunday and Holidays.

Available for adoption on this date: May 9th 2025
