Here's what the humans have to say about me:
** Must be in a home with other dogs. No exceptions. **
** Spudz (0010-S) is her best friend, and they are very close together for those who may be looking to add two dogs into their home. We would love for them to stick together.**
Sweet little Mia came from Alabama after finding herself abandoned and alone. We found her sitting in the kennels alone after being listed for euthanization due to the shelter lacking resources (among all the other animals). Would not let anyone approach her by attempting to run off but, once she's in your arms, she just wants to snuggle... for a moment, anyways.
We learned she was an Owner Surrender at the ETOWAH County Shelter for Unspecified Reasons. Mia was surrendered in questionable conditions.
Mia has always been quiet among the chaos and despite being through a lot, she has made a lot of progress in opening up, with dogs in the home being the #1 influence. Otherwise, she's very independent and paces around the home trying to avoid people. Eye contact is too much for her on the first few days, but if you look away, she'll follow you. Sometimes you can't help but "awe" at her shyness. It has its own charms.
This girl needs a home with patience and allows her to just have her own space without giving her "too" much to prevent separation anxiety building up - unless her adopters are retired or consistently home, frequently. She likes to sleep at the bottom of the bed or next to your pillow. When you're doing something, she's curious as to what you're doing by looking at you around the corner, but you have to pretend you don't see her, of course. When she's with other dogs, she's a lot livelier and wants to engage with them. However, we don't think she's ever had toys and has to watch other dogs play first.
Recently, she learned how fun running around a yard can be. Mia has also become more engaging to the home environment and the people there.

Additional adoption info
We always start off with the application reviewing them at a first come, first serve basis. We look for the best possible compatibility and may ask questions to help to determine if you would be a great possible match. Next, we schedule something known as a "Happy Visit" where you can meet your potential new family member. We usually do this at your property which also covers the brief home visit. However, we also have adoption events or can meet in neutral locations for some animals. Afterwards, you sign an adoption contract and pay for their adoption fee.
We check in on a 3-3-3 basis to make sure everything is going well between your new pet while providing resources to help make transitioning smoother.
