MYA - TERRIER / SHEPHERD / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Shepherd / Mixed. “Look at this pup… isn’t she neat?” Do you remember Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid? Well… Mya is pretty sure she wrote it—because all she wants is to be part of your world… preferably right next to you. She is a loving, 42 lb, three (3) year old lady from West Virginia. Outside, Mya is the total package. She loves to play fetch and lay on her back and wiggle in the grass. And when it’s time to recharge? She’s a pro, whether it’s stretched out on the couch, curled up on your bed, or tucked under a shady chair. Being a sleek black beauty, she can get warm easily, so she appreciates a good rest or fan to catch her breath. And she’s earned it. This amazing girl recently gave birth to five puppies. You can see her motherly nature as she always wants to know where you are and where you are going. She will start your day with caring kisses, making sure everyone is nice and clean. She has lost her postpartum weight and is getting more and more self-sufficent getting up on beds and couches. She doesn't fuss over a good shower and nail day, and her medium-length black coat is easy to maintain with a weekly brush. A yard with a fence or a secure leashing system is preferred as Mya is quick and interested in checking out her surroundings. You definitely want to hold her collar when you open the door for this lady. She’d be happy as your one-and-only or with another playful pup—her foster brother gives her two paws up for wrestling, tug-of-war, cuddles, and kisses. Don’t let her size fool you… she can absolutely hold her own! She's a pro at Work from Home next to her foster mom's laptop, and is an expert at following a food, potty, play, nap schedule. A home with older kids would be the best fit, as Mya is still learning that not everyone wants to be nibbled. She is unsure as to her feelings regarding cats as she hasn't met any yet. Mya is house-broken and comfortable with a big crate for up to 5-6 hours so far. She knows her name even better than her foster brother and comes to the door right when called. She has mastered "sit" and is currently working on "lay down." She is up to date on her vaccinations. She sleeps through the night. She is a relatively quiet girl, except when playing tug or her foster brother is guarding the front window. She wants to join in the chorus too! If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, best friend who just wants to be by your side and stare into your eyes… Mya is ready to be part of your world. Mya is perfect for a family wanting a constant companion that follows a routine schedule. Did you meet Mya at Plum's Walking and Wagging or the PetSmart in the North Hills? Apply to adopt Mya today.
