About Mia

Meet Mia! Mia is a lively girl searching for a calm home where she can flourish. Although she needs some time to warm up to new people, she really comes alive around playful pups.

She will need understanding humans who can respect her need for space as she builds her confidence. At this point, we’re unsure how Mia interacts with cats, so a feline-free home is advisable for now. Miss Mia is spayed, microchipped, dewormed, and up to date on her vaccines. With the right support, she’s sure to show just how wonderful she can be! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
