About Missy
Meet Missy, the delightful dog with a heart as big as her love for exploration. Known affectionately as the "Chill Girl," Missy is an easygoing companion who enjoys the simple pleasures of life, such as sniffing and exploring her surroundings. She's an independent spirit and is quite content to entertain herself, making her a low-maintenance joy to have around.
Missy thrives in an environment where she can wander and satisfy her curiosity. A secure yard with ample space to explore or a daily walk in the neighborhood is just what she needs. She's wonderful with other dogs, displaying an effortlessly friendly demeanor that allows her to coexist harmoniously with any potential new canine siblings. While she may not be overtly affectionate right at the start, she quickly warms up to her human companions, embracing them with her gentle and sweet nature.
In her previous home, Missy was comfortable sleeping both indoors and outdoors, showcasing her adaptable nature. As a girl with a bit of extra fluff, she's currently on a journey towards a healthier weight, and any support her new family can provide will contribute to her overall well-being.
If you're looking for a relaxed and cheerful companion who brings tranquility and joy to your life, Missy might just be the perfect match. A home that offers her the space to roam, explore, and bask in the simple beauty of a secure environment will allow her to continue being the lovable and chill dog she truly is.

We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
