About Miwa

Miwa is a stunning 2-year-old, 58-pound Shepherd mix who’s the perfect blend of adventure seeker and professional snuggler. She quickly warms up to people and enjoys curling up next to you, often resting her head on your chest. When it’s time to play, you’ll find her relishing bones and squeaky toys, eagerly patrolling the yard for any squirrels or birds that dare to appear. This energetic girl thrives in a fenced yard and loves her daily walks, though she may pull a bit on the leash due to her excitement. A harness would be a wise choice for her walks. Although Miwa does well with male dogs, her protective nature around females means she’d likely be happiest as an only dog or paired with a compatible male. Additionally, her strong prey drive means she should not share her home with cats or other small animals. Miwa is friendly and great with children, but her enthusiasm could accidentally topple very small kids, so older, dog-savvy children are ideal. If you’re ready for a loving, active companion who also enjoys quiet cuddle moments, Miwa is the one for you! Her adoption fee is $200, and she’s altered, microchipped, and vaccinated.
