Missy is a very pretty and sweet girl. She is playful, super snuggly, curious and intelligent.

She’s a really sweet girl, who loves to curl up next to you, loves a pat and a tummy rub and has this adorable way of standing with one paw up, very dainty!

She has super cute ears, a lovely lean physique and is an attractive little lady with a gorgeous puppy-like face.

Missy came from a rural pound and was surrendered through no fault of her own. She was very stressed and scared in there and we were told she was really timid. However, within two hours she settled and began to play, prance and show off her cute personality. It’s amazing what a safe and loving environment can do.

She’s good with other dogs, good with people, house trained, sleeps through the night, loves to play fetch and play in general, has pretty good recall, can do a few commands like sit and in your bed and is generally an obedient doggo. That’s a lot of positives!

She pulls a bit on the lead but has improved a lot in foster care and as she is a very smart girl who loves guidance, she can be trained out of this. She is quite an active girl, so will need mental stimulation and physical activity but has also shown she can relax on the couch or by your side.

Missy loves to play and can get a bit worked up but can be settled and redirected quickly. She is also learning boundaries with her foster siblings and sometimes gets a bit enthusiastic when she wants to play with them, but this is improving quickly.

Her ideal home would have a yard to do zoomies in and sniff around as that is what she is used to. Another playful dog, preferably an older male would be great to teach her the ropes, boundaries (as she can get a bit excited) and how to interact with the outside world. A family with older teenagers or an active person/couple would be ideal. As long as she has an outlet for her activity and can snuggle up to you she will be amazing.

This breed is part of the working dog family, loves their immediate people and is very loyal. She loves a good run around and something to do. She can be a bit of a guard dog and bark, but again she is very trainable and it’s something she is copying from her foster siblings, so should subside.

Missy is a happy and friendly girl who likes pats, kisses, playing tug of war and to curl up next to you.  She’s very adaptable and has fit in quickly with her foster family of three other dogs and two teenage boys. With some training and guidance, Missy Moo will be a wonderful addition to your tribe.
