About Mia ~ Mastiff X Staffy (on trial 15/9/19)
Hey, I’m Mia and I’m searching for a new family that includes people who love to hug.
I’m an unknown mix, but that doesn’t bother me, maybe a bit of Staffy or a bit of Mastiff. I’m nearly 2 years old and my last people used me as a puppy producing machine. I’m probably what you could call a medium sized dog but I’m no ordinary dog.
I just live for spending time with my people and getting lots of hugs and belly rubs.
I’m pretty low maintenance - no long coat, dramas for me. I love to go zooming around the yard with toys in my mouth - sometimes I play tug, sometimes I chase a ball - I’m super-fast, very strong and I am an epic escape artist - I will always try to climb over anything less than a 2 metre fence if there was something really interesting over the other side.
I have been trying to build a friendship with the large bossy cat at my foster home, but it's not meant to be, you see - cats and just aren't pals. I do run at the chook yard gate to make the chooks jump, so maybe I shouldn’t be with chooks either.
I’m pretty good with other dogs, so I’d be happy to have a friend in the yard. We’d need to meet first. I do prefer big dogs as my friends.
Out and about for a walk - I can be in a bit of rush, so the people have said I’d need some more work on the lead - I’m ok with that - especially if it comes with treats and hugs. Probably best if you’re children aren’t too little. I don’t jump, but I do sometimes stand up softly.
When I’m inside at my foster home, I always sit on the mat - I’m a very good girl - but if you adopt me and want me to sit on the couch with you, I can do that too.
Mia's adoption fee is $350 and she is desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, microchipped, and lifetime registered.
