Shira's Story

Age 2 years<br/>Weight 45 pounds<br/><br/>Hey there, hooman friends! ? I’m Shira!<br/><br/>I’m a 2-ish-year-old Boxer mix and, not to brag or anything, but I’m kind of a superhero. I raised TEN puppies (yes, ten — count ’em) and still have enough energy to chase a tennis ball like it owes me money.<br/><br/>Now that my babies are all grown and off living their best lives, it’s finally my turn to find a forever home — preferably one with unlimited snacks, a soft couch, and a human who appreciates the art of fetch.<br/><br/>I’m obsessed with toys (especially the squeaky ones), and I take my job of hiding toys under my bed very seriously. You never know when you’ll need an emergency bone stash, right?<br/><br/>When I’m not showing off my zoomies or my fetching skills, I’m a total cuddle bug. I’ll snuggle right up next to you like a weighted blanket with fur — but cuter, obviously. I love to nest in blankets, too.<br/><br/>I adore my foster's other dogs, so if you have another dog that needs a buddy, I've got that covered too!<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a sweet, goofy, loyal gal who’s equal parts athlete and couch potato, I’m your girl. Come meet me — I promise to make you laugh, steal your heart, and probably hide your socks.<br/><br/>Love,<br/>Shira ??<br/>Professional Fetcher | Expert Cuddler | Former Supermom<br/><br/>Shira is in foster care, so if you would like to meet and hopefully adopt her, please submit an application via email: smpetfinder@gmail.com.<br/>https://smallmiraclesrescue.org/adopt.shtml<br/><br/>HOW TO ADOPT:<br/><br/>THIS dog is NOT in the shelter. For dogs in foster care, you MUST submit an application via EMAIL to smpetfinder@gmail.com. Please note in the email subject which dog you are interested in.<br/><br/>Go to: http://www.smallmiraclesrescue.org<br/>and click "How to Adopt". There you will find the dog application available for download.<br/><br/>The more information you provide, the faster the process is for all of us. Once you are approved to adopt, we will schedule an appointment to see the puppy in person and you will adopt and take it home that day.<br/><br/>Due to the (usual) speed and ease of our adoption process, PLEASE ONLY APPLY IF YOU ARE READY TO ADOPT RIGHT NOW. If you are not ready to adopt within the next couple of days, we totally understand - just wait to apply until you are ready.<br/><br/>Adoption Fees:<br/><br/>Before our dogs are available for adoption, they will always be spayed/neutered, vaccinated (Distemper, Parvovirus, Bordetella, Rabies as much as age-appropriate), stool sample checked for parasites, and dewormed.<br/><br/>Adoption fee for our dogs is $375, $40 for a microchip and registration and $50 for a 6 month supply of heartworm preventative.

Hey there, hooman friends! ? I’m Shira!

I’m a 2-ish-year-old Boxer mix and, not to brag or anything, but I’m kind of a superhero. I raised TEN puppies (yes, ten — count ’em) and still have enough energy to chase a tennis ball like it owes me money.

Now that my babies are all grown and off living their best lives, it’s finally my turn to find a forever home — preferably one with unlimited snacks, a soft couch, and a human who appreciates the art of fetch.

I’m obsessed with toys (especially the squeaky ones), and I take my job of hiding toys under my bed very seriously. You never know when you’ll need an emergency bone stash, right?

When I’m not showing off my zoomies or my fetching skills, I’m a total cuddle bug. I’ll snuggle right up next to you like a weighted blanket with fur — but cuter, obviously. I love to nest in blankets, too.

I adore my foster's other dogs, so if you have another dog that needs a buddy, I've got that covered too!
