Mariah!

Cover 2026 HOG Calendar Mariah

Mariah and her siblings were born into rescue on May 10, 2024. Momma Ella, a puppy mill rescue from the midwest, took wonderful care of her six girls and two boys.

Since Mariah was born on my birthday, well let’s just say the rest is history! She captured my heart from day 1. You see, I fostered this family for 9 weeks!

The name Mariah means: “rebellion,” “beloved” and “wished-for-child”. In reality she is named after my great grandmother, Amanda Mariah. My great-grandmother was 4’11” and raised 11 children in the foothills of northern West Virginia. Mariah is living up to her name, she is truly an independent soul who marches to her own drummer!

I should have known, when at 8 weeks of age she ate the puppy collars off of 2 of her siblings and we spent the day in the ER, that I was in for a roller coaster ride with her! She has also eaten earrings, torn apart an extra-large dog bed, discovered the kitchen counter and loves anything paper that she can tear apart! She has been more challenging than my last 3 male puppies, all put together!

Mariah is also very sweet and loving and spends her days playing with her big sisters Mia and Penny. She also loves playing with her sisters Margo and Bella, who live in Prescott. She runs like the wind and always has a big smile on her face!

Thank you RAG of AZ for bringing Mariah to us!
