Meet the fabulous Misio, pronounced "Misho"—and let me tell you, this name means "Teddy Bear" in Polish! 🧸 Isn't that just the cutest? At 9 years young, Misio is an Australian Shepherd who's on a special diet, determined to shed those extra pounds and reach his goal weight of 37 pounds. 🏋️‍♂️ Now, he’s not just looking for any home; he needs a nurturing, patient, and mature environment where he can thrive in his golden years. Trust means everything to Misio, and he's on a journey to overcome some trust issues—he's learning to open his heart, step by step. 💖 But here’s the good news: once you’ve earned his trust, he’ll be yours for life! Misio enjoys being around people, but he’s not the overly cuddly type—he’s more of a solo artist who appreciates his own space while still being close to you. 🛋️ It’s a great balance! This incredible companion is best suited for an adult-only home without other pets, so he can truly focus on building bonds with his human family. Now, don't let his mature years fool you—Misio is still bursting with energy! He’s ready to be your hiking, camping, or running buddy, and he absolutely loves chasing balls around the yard. 🎾 Plus, he’s a smarty pants! With his sharp mind, he picks up training quickly, which means with just a sprinkle of patience and an active lifestyle, Misio will be an outstanding companion for years to come! 🌟 He can be mellow in the house, but rest assured, he’s not a couch potato! Plus, he’s house trained and crate trained—talk about being ready for a forever home! With the right mental stimulation and physical activity, this special boy will thrive! It’s important to remember that dogs are not placed on a first-come, first-served basis—a perfect match is what counts! Applications may take up to 48 hours to process. Misio, like all our lovable companions, is fixed, microchipped, and vaccinated, ready to join your family for an adoption fee of $200. 🐾 If Misio has captured your heart, please—apply to adopt him through the Buddy App! 🌈
