My story

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

**Hello, I'm Mietta!**

I'm a sweet and charming pup, with a heart full of love to share. Playful, friendly, and oh-so-affectionate, I adore my humans and my dear fur sibling, Ginger.

When the sun is shining, you'll often find me basking in its warmth, or out in the yard, chasing after toys and romping around with my canine pal. Life is just better with a bit of playtime, don't you think?

I've got the whole house and leash training routine down to a tee, and I'm quite the pro at commands like sit, come, outside, and potty. If I slip up in some way, a gentle reminder does the trick-I'm a quick learner and eager to please.

You should know, it takes me a little time to warm up to new men. My past in Italy wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, but I've learned that the world can be a wonderful place, especially with the right people by my side. Oh, and about the food guarding thing? I'm working on it, and a few words of guidance are all I need to stay on track.

I was adopted with Ginger by a loving family in Italy due to allergies in another home with a new baby. Now, we're hoping to find our forever family once again, after the loss of our dad and our mom's need to downsize.

Right now, Ginger and I are enjoying our time in foster care, but we can't wait to meet you! If you're interested in getting to know us, please consider filling out an online, no-obligation application. Someone from our foster team will be in touch to arrange a meet and greet. We promise to shower you with love and affection-it's what we do best!
