Mitzi

Mitzi is a sweet, affectionate 3-year-old dog who weighs about 48 pounds. Owner-surrendered and now thriving in foster care, she is shy at first but warms up beautifully with patience and TLC. Once she trusts you, she becomes a loving, devoted companion who enjoys couch cuddles, car rides, walks, playtime with other dogs, and splashing in a kiddie pool.

Ideal Home

Mitzi would do best with someone patient who will give her time to feel safe and build trust. She enjoys playing with other dogs and generally does well with them when they are not dominant. She is listed as good with cats and children.

Ongoing Health

Mitzi is spayed, vaccinated, and current on flea, tick, and heartworm prevention. She tested positive for heartworms, completed treatment, and is ready for her forever home.
