AWLA’s Pawfect Match of the Week: Meet Mario!
Mario is Looking for his Luigi. Could that be You?

ALEXANDRIA, VA –
Gender: Male
Age: 1 year, 2 months
Weight: 47 pounds
Color: Mostly black with some brown
About Me: I’m still a puppy but I know myself – and I know I love the great outdoors! I may not be a bloodhound, but I’ve got its nose and I love to sniff everything. With all the spring flowers and buds about to burst into bloom, I’m really hoping my forever person finds me fast so I don’t miss a single day of outdoor exploring.
Ideal Match: My ideal Luigi is an outdoor person. Great weather? Let’s go outside! Meh weather? Let’s still go outside. Horrible, rainy weather? You can probably talk me into staying indoors, but once the sun comes out, I’ll be scratching at the door, ready to go out. Are you up for some positive reinforcement training with me? Remember, I’m still a puppy. If you are, then we seriously need to talk. And treats? Keep them handy and keep them coming.
Fun Fact: I’m really done with winter – especially this one! Let’s welcome spring together!
My adoption fees are paid and I will be spayed or neutered before you take me home. To learn more about me or meet me, contact the Animal Welfare League of Alexandria by emailing [email protected] or call 703-746-4774, option 2.
