Missy

Missy<br/>5 years, 12lbs<br/>Rescued in the Southwest after being turned in by her previous owner through no fault of her own<br/><br/>Meet Missy! This tender, baby-faced expert lounger is a lovely balance of affectionate and independent — she'll cozy up near you and wag her tail in acknowledgment, but she's just as content relaxing solo in her own space. She approaches new situations with a healthy mix of caution and curiosity, never overly bold or fearful. She's sweet and mellow with people of all kinds, polite and curious with other dogs (always in for a gentle sniff), and likely cat-friendly, though untested. She's shown no signs of separation anxiety and settles in easily whether alone or with guests around.<br/><br/>Missy's crate trained, has excellent leash manners, and knows sit, stay. Her days are refreshingly simple: a morning walk she genuinely loves, followed by a leisurely rotation between various favorite beds around the house. She's not particularly interested in toys or fetch, but a brisk walk and a cozy spot to relax are really all she needs. Missy would do best in a calm, apartment-friendly home, ideally with someone (perhaps an older adopter) leading a low-to-moderately active lifestyle who wants a devoted companion to bring along everywhere. Her foster describes her as a dainty little lady with a deer-like face and huge, sweet eyes — an endlessly calming presence who just wants to give and receive as much affection as possible.<br/><br/>**Missy previously tested positive for heartworm and was treated before she was transported north<br/><br/>INTERESTED IN ADOPTING?<br/>To adopt Missy, apply on our website www.truenorthrescue.org/adopt and email adopt@truenorthrescue.org to follow up on your application.<br/><br/>PLEASE DO NOT EMAIL TO ASK IF HE/SHE IS AVAILABLE.
