Meet Mahli

Breed: German Shepherd

What's up dog?

This is a posthumous entry. Mahli was such a bright light in our lives bringing such love and happiness to our house. Mahli joined our family as a stray from the pound and was larger than life from start to finish living by the rule go hard or go home. Mahli was a pup at heart who unexpectedly left us in February this year leaving a massive hole. She was the biggest cuddle bug whos antics made us laugh daily. She was always stopped on our walks for pats and commented on how young she looked even at the senior age of 11. She will forever be in our hearts.
