Story
Meet handsome Copper, a striking 5½-year-old pup with a big heart and an even bigger zest for life! After the heartbreaking loss of his owner, Copper was surrendered to a shelter. Thankfully, he is now safe in a Misty Eyes foster home while he waits for a loving forever family to call his own.Weighing about 65 pounds, Copper is believed to be a Red Border Collie. He gets along well with other dogs, especially those close to his size, and the companionship of a well-socialized canine friend may help him feel more comfortable. Copper is a somewhat anxious boy who can become distressed when there is too much activity in the home. He would do best in a quiet household without lots of visitors and noise, but with people who can provide the physical and mental stimulation a smart, active Border Collie needs. He loves riding in the car, although he has a very different opinion of moving vehicles—he wants to chase them! Busy roads and traffic noise are also unsettling for him, so a quiet neighborhood would be ideal. Because Copper can become cranky when stressed, he would not be a good match for a home with young children. However, for the right adult family, this handsome boy has so much potential!Copper is an intelligent fellow who would likely thrive with additional training. If you’re looking for a loyal walking buddy, hiking companion, or adventure partner, Copper may be your perfect match! If you’re ready to give this wonderful boy the fresh start he deserves, please submit an adoption application online at: https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.

Story
Meet Piper—a truly special little lady who’s been waiting far too long to find her forever home. This sweet Miniature Pinscher mix has quite the story. She arrived at Misty Eyes Animal Center from a shelter with her litter of eight puppies, and after lovingly raising them, it’s finally her turn to be cared for and cherished. Piper will be a bit timid at first and can be shy around new people, but with patience, kindness, and a little time, she blossoms into a devoted and affectionate companion. Once you’ve earned her trust, she’ll happily curl up beside you and show just how loving she truly is. At around 4 years old and 30 pounds, Piper has a playful side—she especially enjoys chasing her favorite ball and letting her joyful spirit shine. Because she can be sensitive to loud noises and unfamiliar situations, she would do best in a calm, quiet home where she can feel safe and secure. Piper finds comfort in her people and forms strong, loyal bonds. With the right family—one that understands her gentle nature and is willing to go at her pace—she will be an incredibly rewarding companion. If you’re ready to open your heart and home to this deserving girl, please submit an adoption application at: https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.

Story
Meet Sammy, a lovable Lab/Shepherd mix who`s almost four years old and tipping the scales at a solid 80 pounds of pure joy! This friendly and energetic boy has had quite the journey, arriving at Misty Eyes from an overcrowded shelter alongside his siblings. Although he was adopted as a puppy, life threw a curveball, and he found himself back in the care of our dedicated team—through no fault of his own! Now, in his foster home, Sammy is wagging his tail with delight as he polishes up his house manners, proving that practice makes paw-fect! Sammy adores going on walks and spending quality time with his foster family, ready to bring boundless happiness to a forever home. Although he is fine with most people, Sammy doesn`t appreciate other animals, so will need to be the only pet in the home. He would be a great fit for a country home with property where he can expend his energy. If you would like an active, loyal companion, please submit an adoption application for Sammy online at https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.

Story
Meet Coco, a very cute, spicy little Corgi-mix who is ready to find his new forever home! Coco is a 7½-year-old, 14-pound male dog whose life changed when his owner sadly passed away. He was surrendered to a shelter and has now found his way to a Misty Eyes foster home while he waits for a loving family of his own.This little guy is friendly, outgoing, and absolutely loves attention from his people! He gets along well with other dogs and enjoys leash walks, running around in a fenced yard, and even visiting a dog park. Coco is not a fan of being confined, so he is not crated—but he does well free-roaming the home when his people are away.Coco arrived at Misty Eyes with bladder stones. After being placed on a prescription diet, he underwent surgery to remove the remaining stones and is doing well. He will need to continue eating only his prescription diet to help protect his urinary health.While Coco loves people and attention, he can also be a bit of a grouch when it comes to brushing, nail trims, and vet visits—so he will need an adopter who understands his spicy little personality! He also likes to bark at and attempt to chase cars, bicycles, and other vehicles while on walks.Coco would love a home where he can receive plenty of the attention he craves, along with moderate physical activity. Because of his occasional grouchiness during handling, he needs a home without small children. If you’d like to meet this adorable little guy and see if Coco might be your perfect match, please submit an adoption application online at https://www.mistyeyes.org/adoptionapplication.
