Muffin is pet of the week at your Rancho Coastal Humane Society. She’s a 1-1/2-year-old, 21-pound, female, Labrador Retriever mix.

She was a stray in Sonora, Mexico before being transferred to Rancho Coastal Humane Society through Friends of County Animal Shelters (FOCAS.)

Muffin was adopted, but never settled in. She was returned her after 15 months. Since then, she’s spent most of her time in foster care.
