About Mira
Name: MIRA (pronounced “MEE-rah”)
Litter: New Dawn Litter
Date of Birth: 12 November 2025
Breed: Mixed breed, Mastiff x Bull Arab (mum) x Cattle Dog (dad)
Profile:
Meet MIRA, a content, relaxed and chunky little girl who will instantly make you smile! She was the smallest of her New Dawn litter, but look at her now! Mira’s personality is bright, friendly and full of curiosity. MIRA loves playing with her littermates and the resident Great Dane. She particularly loves cuddles with her 5 yo human foster brother and soaking up whatever attention comes her way.
Her mum, Xena (Mastiff x Bull Arab), pictured, is a calm, affectionate family dog, great with children, while her dad is believed to be a neighbouring Cattle Dog, adding energy and smarts to the mix. MIRA has inherited the best of both — she’s playful yet gentle, affectionate yet easy-going.
Ideal Home:
MIRA will thrive in a home where she’s treated as part of the family, with secure fencing to keep her safe and indoor privileges so she can enjoy human company. She needs people who will offer consistent guidance and gentle support as she grows through puppyhood, and who will provide plenty of love, attention, and interaction. She would make a wonderful addition to a family or as a companion dog for someone looking for a devoted little friend.

Desexing:
MIRA is offered for adoption under the terms of our Deferred Desexing Program. This means she can go to her new home undesexed, but her family must agree to strict conditions regarding preventing breeding and ensuring she is desexed at an agreed and appropriate time. Her adoption fee covers the cost of her desexing, subject to our terms and conditions.
