My story

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

Missy can be described in one word "Sweetness. She loves life. She's very active and will help you get your 10k steps!

She loves people and she enjoys playing with other male dogs. A meet and greet would be best if you have a dog. Would be great for agility training. Loves to run and jump. Missy is a really good dog who found herself homeless through no fault of her own like most dogs in shelters. She deserves to find a home that will spoil her. She especially likes to play with Brutus (also for adoption), they LOVE each other.

She will need time to decompress from being at the shelter so long. She is active but knows how to calm down and cuddle. If you are having a bad day, she will cheer you up. When we move her from kennel to outside space and back, she insists on getting her hugs before she is moved. She wants all the attention. Professional Hugger!

Missy can be fearful of new folks, so if considering Missy, you'll need to make multiple visits to the shelter for her to get to know you. Consider it like dating. First you visit, then perhaps some dog walking to see if you are a good fit. As well, we suggest a one person home as she wants ONLY her person. Care should be taken to introduce new folks to her slowly and methodically. Once she loves you, she REALLY loves you.

Come meet her and let her put a smile on your face. She's a special one. Fenced yard recommended.

More about this rescue

The mission of Castoff Pet Rescue is to save and nurture homeless dogs; to match companion animals with loving, life-long homes; to foster responsible pet care; to control overpopulation in our community through spay/neuter programs; and to assist other shelters and rescue groups in any endeavor to benefit the animals. We believe that the same kindness, compassion, and generosity we extend to our two-legged neighbors should be given to our four-legged friends because they are not able to speak for themselves.
