My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

 

 



 

 

 

Hi, my name is Merry Mistlepaws (aka Myiah). I have a Christmas name because I was adopted as a puppy last Christmas. However, what I thought was my furr-ever home was not. But it wasn't any fault of mine. My adopter wasn't able to keep me.

 

I’m almost 2 years old and a juicy nugget, weighing in at over 70 pounds. I live in a foster home with a sweet old lady and a Chiweenie dog, so don’t let my size scare you off. I can be a formidable presence at the door when a stranger knocks! Now you know why the UPS man has brown pants!

 

The reality is that I’m afraid, and so I bark and act scary to keep strangers away. My initial scariness has kept most adopters away, unfortunately. 

 

My perfect home would be one with my people, where there aren’t new people coming in and out of the house. I can walk on the leash, but I’d prefer a home where I could lounge in my fenced backyard. And while I love my Chiweenie foster brother, I am picky about my dog friends mostly because I’m a scaredy cat in my heart and head.

 

If you have the patience for a dog like me, apply today
