Mia is a SUPER sweet approximately one and a half year old 30 lb. border collie/rat terrier mix dog with the personality of an angel.  She is muscular, yet petite, young, very sweet, very smart and an absolute LOVE BUG.  She is extremely well behavedhousebroken and kenneled trained and Mia will ‘go potty’ on command!!  She is perfect in the house by herself (she does have a doggie door), doesn’t chew anything and also sleeps with us all night, excusing herself during the night to ‘go potty’.  She loves cuddling with you in bed and enjoys some playing in the morning.  

She LOVES going to the dog park and runs and barks and runs and barks at the other dogs.  She is a border mix so she has a lot of energy.  She goes to the dog park every day with her foster mom to get some of that energy out.  She races at top speed chasing dogs outside the fence line, birds, drones, anything that is moving, she is a bullet to try and get it.  Mia would truly love to have a family with another very active dog or a daily trip to the dog park to run and play.  Because of her energy level, her wonderful agility, ability to jump high and desire to please, her foster mom thinks she would be a fantastic agility dog!! She loves chasing other dogs and being chased and playing with the other dogs.  If you have an active, full of energy pup looking for a friend, she might be perfect for you.  She does great with both small and larger dogs.  She likes to fetch in the house and will often put the toy in your lap or between your legs to encourage you to throw it.  But at the dog park she is all about the other dogs.  She is completely chill at home, but really needs some high energy chasing/playing time to use up some of her border collie power!!

She listens very well and will be easy to train too as she wants to please!  She has been going to obedience school and knows how to sit patiently for her dinner, she also knows sits, heel, down, and stay.  She has four perfectly socked feet, a smidge of white at the tip of her tail, and sweet and intelligent eyes.  She is fully grown and weighs in at about 30 lbs.  She is so funny as she can fall asleep standing up.  LOL!  She is absolutely lovely, young, good energy without being annoying, loves everyone and would be happy with a family of her own.  Mia is an absolute doll!!  Please come and meet Mia!

Go meet their pets

Trinity GAP Rescue (TGR), founded in 2012, evolved to support The Trinity GAP Club (Girls Awareness Program), founded in 2003, as a girls club at Trinity High School in Euless, Texas. The mission of the Trinity GAP Club is to give these high school girls a positive outlet for their time and show them positive alternatives for their lives. Their community service project is volunteering with the Euless Animal Shelter and sponsoring as many animals as funds allow to provide spay/neuter, shots, and other vetting costs for the pets. Since a high school club has limitations as to the support they can provide the Euless Animal Shelter, TGR was formed as a 501c3 charitable organization to support the GAP Club and provide services beyond their capabilities. TGR and the GAP Club meet at the Euless Shelter once a week to interact with the pets and obtain information and pictures for networking sites to help these pets find homes. Adoption fees for these shelter pets recycle back into the program to continue vet funding for all shelter pets. Adoption fees do not even cover basic vet services, and there are always unforeseen medical expenses, so TGR and the GAP Club host adoption events and fund-raisers such as sales of baked goods, tamales, candy and candles and also host 2 large annual events on campus, a Pet Fair and a Walk-a-Thon. All funds collected by The GAP Club and TGR sponsor vetting and/or boarding for homeless pets. There are no funds for pets who come into the shelter sick or wounded. All vet fees are paid through donations to TGR and the GAP Club. TGR and The GAP Club work hard to raise funds to keep adoption fees low and competitive to help these pets find homes quickly since this is a municipal shelter with limited space. The Trinity GAP Club and TGR have made a huge impact in lowering the euthanasia rate of the Euless Animal Shelter by 80%. This percentage is misleading as it includes all pets, both adoptable and unadoptable. In the past few years, no adoptable pet has been euthanized. The Trinity GAP Club has won many local and state awards including “The 2009 Youth Volunteer of the Year”. Trinity GAP Rescue is proud to partner with the Trinity GAP Club!
