About Missy

Missy is the kind of walking buddy that makes even boring neighborhoods feel a little brighter. Just a few months ago, she was wandering around Carbondale, skinny and scared, hoping for a little luck. She landed in the shelter system, where time nearly ran out, but she got her second shot. She hasn’t wasted a minute since. When it comes to leash manners, Missy is steady as they come. She won’t yank your arm off—just trots along, tail up, rain or shine. A home with another dog would suit her perfectly; she genuinely loves canine company and is just as happy sharing a yard as she is curling up together after a long walk. Kids are her kind of people, too. After all she’s been through, Missy might come off a touch reserved when you first meet, just the way street dogs often do. But she warms up quickly and her loyalty is the real deal. She’s looking for a place to sleep, regular food, and someone who sees her for the companion she’s always wanted to be. When she finally lets you in, she won’t let you down. Could you be the one? She’ll be waiting—walks included. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
