My personality

My story

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

Missy is one of the silliest and sweetest dogs you will ever meet! This 2 year old Aussie/Heeler mix is also a big ball of energy who absolutely loves playing with her humans as well as her foster dog brothers. She even gets along with the cats in her foster home as well! Missy is a tri-colored, medium sized girl who should be all done growing topping out at around 41 lbs, is crate/house trained, and is super smart as she picks up training lessons quick.

Her new adoption family will still need to be committed to continuing this training and building upon it along with providing plenty of exercise and enrichment to be a true success. Since she is still learning and on the higher energy side, we would recommend her go to a house with older children and/or active adults. Missy loves belly rubs, nylabones, giving kisses, and toys of all kinds as well! Come meet this adorable sweetheart today!

One of Missy's favorite things to do is cuddle up with her humans. Will literally snuggle into your lap. So if you're looking for a cuddly companion, Missy is a sure fit!

Missy is available to adopt in the Chicagoland area and is being fostered in a home. Appointments to visit her will be set up for approved adopters only. Adoption fee is $300.00 which includes all appropriate vaccines, and she is spayed and microchipped. Missy would do best in a home with children 10 years old and up.
