About Misty

Misty is a sweet and smart two-year-old female Great Pyrenees mix, sporting an all-white coat and double dew claws. Though a bit lean, she's on the smaller side for her breed. Misty came into foster care after being rescued by animal control, and while she initially showed signs of fear and anxiety, she has made remarkable progress. Now, she enjoys daily walks and has embraced the role of a loving lap dog. She plays well with small dogs in her foster home and gets along with the neighborhood cat. While she has some resource guarding tendencies, this is managed by providing separate meals. Misty is observant and thoughtful, but once she warms up, she loves to snuggle and give affection. She is potty trained, crate trained, and does well on a leash, staying alert to her surroundings without excessive barking. Misty might take a bit of time to adjust to a new home, but her gentle nature makes her a wonderful companion. She is spayed and currently in a foster home near Garland, TX. If you're seeking a loyal friend, Misty could be your perfect match. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
