About Mizu

Mizu is a 65lb, 6-year-old American Bully mix who’s happiest snuggled up close, hogging every inch of space and soaking up belly rubs. She keeps her crate spotless and hasn’t turned the house into her bathroom, so she’s reliable at home. Introductions with new dogs go best when taken slowly, but once she warms up she just wants to play. Mizu truly lights up around people and kids, always eager for their attention. She’s very motivated by fast-moving cats, so she’s only calm with them when they’re safely separated—catio cats are her speed. Getting Mizu into a harness or car for an outing is easy; she’s laid back and rides well. If you want a good-hearted companion who doubles as a warm pillow and brings real joy, Mizu just may be the one. Click apply to start the adoption process.
