About Midge

Midge is a sweet 5 1/2-year-old Bichon/Poodle mix weighing just 11 pounds. Surrendered by a breeder, she is learning the joys of being loved and cherished. Although she can be timid and skittish, once she trusts someone, she transforms into an affectionate companion who adores being held. This gentle girl is spayed, fully vetted, and microchipped. While she's crate trained and currently working on her house training, a secure, fenced yard is required due to her anxious nature and difficulty with leash walking. Midge is great with other dogs but does not fare well with cats and has not been around children. Midge doesn’t need a perfect home, just someone patient and loving willing to help her blossom. She’s ready to fill your life with companionship. Start your journey together! Apply now.
