About Mia

Mia lights up any room, though she needs a minute to trust and open up. Once she does, you get loyalty and love in abundance. She’s gentle, calm, and especially sweet with every age group—kids have her heart, and she fits perfectly into family life. Mia prefers women at first, but with some patience, she also bonds with men and shares her joy equally. Belly rubs are a must in her world; there’s nothing that cheers her up more. She has a thing for plush toys, rounding up her stuffies into little treasure piles, sometimes burying and unburying them in the yard for the fun of it. She loves playing fetch and chase, and when she’s done, she’ll flip onto her back with her blue eyes sparkling, ready for more affection. Mia’s crate trained and walks very well on leash, making walks, hikes, or road trips with her easy. She’s even proven to be a fantastic travel companion after a cross-country trip with her foster parents. New experiences can make her pause, but she adjusts quickly with encouragement. She enjoys exploring the woods and the beach, always looking for adventure but equally able to settle in quietly at home. Mia has a gentle spirit, regaining confidence after a tough past. She socializes well with other dogs and enjoys peaceful solo time in the yard with her collection of sticks and toys. Fully vetted and finished with heartworm treatment, she’s ready for her next chapter with someone who’ll appreciate her combination of fun and calm. She’ll be a devoted companion for those who want a friend at home or out in the world. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
