About Miesha

Miesha is a bold and lively 10-month-old spayed female Pit Bull/Retriever mix who thrives on attention and affection. She stands out as the self-appointed leader of her litter, always ready to make her voice heard and claim her spot in the room. There’s no shortage of personality here—Miesha is quick with kisses and just as quick to tell you when she wants some love. Her early life took her from a high-risk shelter in Southwest Virginia to the rescue, along with her mom and siblings. She didn’t stay long before finding a home, but after five months, she was returned. In her previous home, Miesha lived with a young child, a cat, and even a bearded dragon. She got to run around in a fenced yard and is crate trained. She’s known for retaining her puppy energy and can still be a bit nippy, especially around smaller kids. She chased the resident cat for sport and, recently, had some nighttime crate accidents as house training slipped a bit. Miesha is spayed and up to date on all her shots, including Rabies, Distemper, Lepto, and Bordetella. Her confidence and stamina make every day unpredictable in the best way. If you want a one-of-a-kind, fun-loving dog who’ll keep you on your toes and sneak in for cuddles, look no further. Give them the home they have been waiting for. Apply today.
