Story
Mia is a gentle, tenderâhearted girl who has already lived a big life. She was abandoned when she became pregnant, but despite everything, she made the long trip to Minnesota with her nine puppies and raised them with absolute devotion. Now that her babies are safe and thriving, it’s finally her turn to be loved. Mia is a playful spirit once she feels comfortable. She adores toys, especially anything she can chew — nylabones are her favorite, though she sometimes forgets that not everything in the world is a chew toy. She loves chasing tennis balls, even if she has no intention of bringing them back; she’d much rather toss them around herself or zoom around the yard with her dog friends. Around her humans, Mia is shy but incredibly sweet. Her tail spins like a helicopter when she sees the people she trusts, even if she still gets nervous when hands reach toward her. She’ll quietly hop onto the couch for pets and snuggles when she’s ready, and those moments feel like little gifts. Walks are still a bit overwhelming for her, so she’s hoping for a patient family who understands that confidence takes time. With gentle guidance, she’ll continue to blossom. Mia is a polite, quiet girl — except when she’s having a “conversation” with the neighbor dogs, which she does with great enthusiasm. She’s fully housebroken, rides beautifully in the car, and is wonderfully respectful of cats (she mostly pretends they don’t exist). Mia is looking for a calm, loving home that will celebrate her small victories, give her space to grow, and show her that she’ll never be abandoned again. If you have a soft spot for shy dogs with big hearts, Mia will be the sweetest companion you could ever hope for.
