Meet Mishka

You would never expect it from a dog who was found tied to a pole in front of a shelter, but Mischka is a truly gentle soul. At about 4–5 years old and just 45 pounds, she is on the petite side. When she arrived at the shelter, she had recently had puppies, yet through it all she has remained sweet, calm, and loving. Mischka gets along well around other dogs. She tends to keep to herself, but she is not timid. She carries herself with a quiet confidence and has a wonderfully relaxed temperament. She doesn't jump on people or furniture and is content simply being near her humans. What Mischka loves most is affection. This gentle handsome girl will lean into you for pets and attention, soaking up every bit of love she receives. She will require a bit of leash training - seemingly she had never been on a leash. With her temperament though this should be fairly easy. If you're looking for a calm, affectionate companion with a heart of gold, you'll be thrilled to meet Mischka. And yes she is all vetted including spay.
