Shes the prettiest girl in the room. She’s just learning to be a dog and she has come so far in just two weeks in her foster home. She loves her foster brother and follows him around, learning new things everyday (and she’s pretty). She has become a champ walking on lead and has a great record for pottying outside.   She has the softest coat and gets bathed about weekly and brushed every other day. She tolerates both, but it takes effort on her part. She’s a low clearance girl, so standing in water is not her idea of fun. She’s really a shorty! But at about 12#, she’s definitely a mini.   She is currently very skittish around new people. She is still learning to trust. That can take a while. But she’s very content sitting on your lap, in her bed, or on the couch. And do I mention she’s pretty? She does need a ramp or stairs to get onto furniture and benefits from stairs to get up three steps into her foster house. She’s not much of a jumper and has had back issues in the past.   Right now, she gets around well and goes for a walk twice a day. She’s building strength and stamina. Continuing that habit will help her live a healthy life. She walks at a leisurely pace. She’s never going to run with you, though she has run in the yard a bit with her foster brother… well behind him. She’s so pretty and docile! She would be good in a home with an older adoptive parent or in a home with another small dog. So far, she’s not very comfortable around bigger dogs or fast moving small children.   Play (with) Misti? She’s learning. Right now she doesn’t show much interest. But she’s very content watching her foster brother when he chases his toys.   She’s sweet and pretty. She won’t be fully vetted with her spay and dental until the end of June. At that time she will be fully available for adoption.” Misti is 6 yrs old, she weighs 12 pounds, her adoption fee is $350 plus sales tax $15.75=$365.75   My adoption fee help with my vetting needs such as HW test,presurgical bloodwork, rabies, DHPPL, Bordetella, spay, dental and microchipping.
