Missy Shepherd & Labrador Retriever Mix New York, NY

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Missy is a beautiful 3yr old Lab/Chow mix weighing in at 54 lbs! Missy came to rescue from GA with a terribly painful skin infection and mange. Look how stunning this beautiful girl is now!

Missy was extremely scared of people when she came into foster. She has absolutely "blossomed" and is the life of the party in her foster family's pack. Missy MUST have another dog as she builds confidence and finds much happiness and peace surrounded by other canines. She does well with male and female dogs of all sizes, and she must have a fenced yard to run around in. She is VERY shy and timid at first with human strangers and must build trust at her own pace. Once she feels secure, she turns into a playful, loving, affectionate girl who brings joy wherever she is! Missy is spayed, crate trained and house trained. She has very nice manners in the home. She enjoys her crate for her personal "den" and finds security there. Adopter must be willing to allow Missy to open up and trust at her own pace and seek attention in her own time.
