Meet Misty!
Misty is a spirited almost four-year-old Rottweiler/Labrador Retriever/Catahoula Leopard Dog mix whose essence is a golden burst of affection wrapped in a 90-pound frame of playful energy and heart-melting cuddles. She is the kind of dog who makes herself known, not just by her stunning golden brown coat with white accents, but with the way she leans in close to rest her head on your chest, or showers you with kisses when you’ve had a long day. She’s a sweet-natured, medium-energy girl who absolutely adores people, especially kids, and thrives in environments filled with love, consistency, and room to stretch her long legs. Her favorite toy? A squeaky octopus that brings out her goofy, playful side every time!
Ideal Home
Misty must be the only animal in her home. She needs a spacious fenced yard and a patient, loving caregiver who understands her quirks and sees the loyal, affectionate companion beneath.
Ongoing Health
Misty is spayed, microchipped, and up-to-date on her vaccinations.
Training & Support
Misty is crate trained and house-trained. She knows commands like “come,” “sit,” “lay,” and “stay,” though like any independent soul, she occasionally needs a reminder to follow through. She’s done well with short periods alone, especially when left with a chew bone (though she’s been known to redecorate with shredded paper if boredom strikes!). Misty shines with positive reinforcement and gentle, firm guidance. She responds beautifully to a calm but confident voice, especially when her excitement bubbles over into enthusiastic greetings (yes, she's a jumper, because she just can't wait to say hello!). Misty has severe resource guarding issues, particularly around food, and has had altercations with other dogs in the home. While she’s friendly with dogs in controlled environments, she cannot share living space or food areas with other animals.
