Mia is a 5-year-old, 20-pound female schnauzer mix who came to us from Mexico. She's a serene, independent, and very cuddly little pup with a gentle spirit. Mia is still adjusting to life in the city and takes things at her own pace. She enjoys chewing on her bones, curling up next to you for a cozy nap, and quietly exploring her surroundings. During her time with her foster family, Mia appears to be housetrained. Mia is still building confidence on leash. She moves slowly and stays very aware of her surroundings, and she can be fearful of unfamiliar dogs on the street. When she feels unsure, she is comfortable being picked up so you can continue on your walk. Her forever family will need to continue reinforcing the great progress she is already making and help her keep building confidence. Mia has done very well staying home while her fosters are at work. She is a perfect little angel who usually spends that time napping. When her foster family is home, she loves being cozy with them and is often found snuggled up with her favorite blanket. Mia is looking for a calm, low-key home where she will have the time and space to truly blossom. She could do well as the only dog or with another calm, trustworthy dog. She would thrive with people who respect her independence while still giving her plenty of gentle affection and pets Vaccinated for Rabies, DHPP, and Bordetella. Neutered and microchipped.
