🐾Meet Mya! ❤️

Mya is a sweet, intelligent, and playful 8-month-old pup who is looking for a loving home where she can continue to grow, learn, and build confidence.

Mya is a wonderful mix of playful puppy and affectionate companion. She knows her basic commands and is eager to learn more. Mya is crate trained through the night and enjoys both active play and quiet cuddle time with her people. Whether she's playing fetch, exploring the yard, or curling up on the couch, Mya is happiest when she is spending time with her family.

As a young dog, Mya is still learning about the world around her. She will do best with a patient, committed adopter who understands the importance of structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Continued socialization and training will help Mya develop confidence and become the best version of herself. She would benefit from a family willing to allow her to progress at her own pace while providing clear guidance and plenty of encouragement.

Mya is up to date on vaccinations, spayed, and microchipped.

At this time, Mya needs to be the only pet in the home. A securely fenced yard would be a wonderful bonus for this energetic, fetch-loving girl, but most importantly, she needs a family dedicated to helping her thrive.

Mya has so much love to give and is ready for someone who will help her learn, grow and become her best self. Could that be you? If so, please fill out an application today! 🐾❤️
