Story
MY ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED! Meet Missy, a delightful 4-year-old Bluetick mix looking for her forever home. Weighing in at 50 pounds, she is a spayed female with a heart full of love to offer. Missy is a unique blend of sweetness and playfulness, making her an ideal companion for the right family. Missy is a friendly girl with a gentle soul. Though she might be a bit shy when first meeting new people, she quickly warms up and shows her true colors as a loving and affectionate companion. One of her favorite things to do is lean against people to soak up all the attention and affection she can get. Missy would thrive best in a loving home where she can be the only dog. This will allow her to receive all the love and attention she craves without having to share the spotlight. Missy has a playful spirit and enjoys spending time with her toys. Whether it's a game of fetch or simply snuggling with her favorite plush toy, she knows how to have fun.  If you are interested in adopting please head to our website to fill out an adoption application at https://alleghanyhumane.org April 26, 2026, 2:02 pm
