About Mya

Mya is a striking shepherd/husky mix with a captivating personality. While she can be a bit shy when meeting new people, once she warms up, she reveals her affectionate nature. Mya came to us with her close friend Moose, and we would prefer to place them together, as both have endured lengthy stays in a kennel environment. She utilizes a dog door effectively, suggesting she's likely house trained, though we haven't had the opportunity to test this in a home setting. Mya has received treatment for heartworms and is fully vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. A kind donor has even covered her adoption fee, making her transition to a new home easier.
