Straight out of the Super Mario Bros. universe, this dynamic little dude is ready to leave the Mushroom Kingdom for his forever home!

Mario is a supercharged supermutt who first revved up his puppy engine in Atascosa, Texas. He followed the rainbow road all the way over to SNIPSA, where he and his siblings hope to find true love in new lands.

In foster care, Mario has a super high score! He is very playful and loves to rough and tumble with the other dogs in his home. At night, his foster mom gets to experience his cuddly side, as he crawls right into the bed to sleep by her side. Mario has some funny quirks, like hunting and pouncing on his toys, and he perks right up when he hears the word “treat!” He has been using his potty pads like a champ, too. Since he is treat-motivated and eager to please, he will make an easy training candidate.

This guy is true to his Heeler roots: With his smarts and stamina, he will keep you on your toes! At his young age, he adjusts well to most home environments as long as you can offer continued structure and exercise. Mario is just three months old, and just can’t wait to “power up” your life!

So, whether you need a high-speed gaming partner or a snuggly sidekick, this guy has you covered! Apply to meet Mario today.
