My story

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

Missy Elliott (yeah, that Missy)<br/><br/>If youre looking for a loyal, lovable companion with just the right mix of sass and sweetness, allow me to reintroduce myself, Im Missy (but you can call me Missy Elliott if youre feeling fancy).<br/><br/>Im gentle-hearted, a little shy at first, but once I warm up (a few treats help), Im all about the good vibes only. I love toys, belly rubs, and snack time like its my full-time job. And when I get comfortable? Oh, the kisses and tail wags dont stop. I love a good play and romp with other dogs.<br/><br/>I walk like Ive got a purpose, because I do, right next to you, taking your lead like were dropping a chart-topping duet. I already know sit, down, drop it and sometimes even shake (because I do like to work it!). And yes, I LOVE to fetch tennis balls and bring them right back like a pro. Missy dont miss.<br/><br/>Id do best in a calm home, ideally with no kiddos under 12, just a chill vibe where I can truly shine. If youre patient and kind, I promise Ill flip it and reverse it into a beautiful friendship. Great example is I was in a foster home and properly met 3 well-behaved kiddos (5, 7 and 10). They were instructed to allow me to make the first move to meet them. It took no time for me to go up to them and greet them. Then, we had super time together with them throwing balls and me bringing them back, dropping the ball so they could throw again.<br/><br/>Lets take it slow... and make some magic.<br/><br/>Love,<br/>Missy (Elliott, obviously)
