Miriam Terrier Mix New Orleans, LA

At 5 years old and 35 pounds. Her favorite thing in the world is giving kisses and getting belly rubs, and her least favorite thing is thunder, lightning and rain. When it starts to thunder and rain, she likes to go and hide and stay away from it all. We get it! She’s the sweetest girl and will give you all of the love in the world. She does great on leash and will fill you with laughter with her goofy antics.

Miriam does great with slow introductions to new people, places and things, but once she knows them, she’s a champ. Due to her anxiety with new situations, Miriam is going to a board and train program until mid November. This training will set her up to be the best version of herself. An approved adopter will be given 4-5 hours of hands on training at their facility to help you learn how to keep her progress going. She was quickly a staff favorite and earned the name "Moaning Myrtle" for her goofy vocals when working on her skills and confidence. Dogs that have been through this program in the past have done wonderfully in their new homes and the trainers will be available for follow up sessions as needed.

Miriam truly is a diamond in the ruff. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and heartworm negative. Please reach out to give this girl a chance. You won't regret it one bit.

**Please do not use the "Introduce Yourself" feature. The information needed to determine if you might be a match for one of our animals can only be found on our application. An inquiry, question, or introduction through Petfinder is NOT an application. All known details about our animals are posted on their profile and updated daily. Other info would be discussed in detail with the foster during the application review process. Due to the number of introductions/questions received (hundreds daily) we ask you submit an application on our website (that application can be used for any dog with Take Paws Rescue).

The adoption fee for adult dogs covers age appropriate vaccinations, microchip, spay/neuter if not yet performed, heartworm test & appropriate heartworm treatment by the rescue's vet. All dogs in our care are also kept up-to-date on HW/Flea Prevention. Please see our website for more information.
