My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Mia, an American Pit Bull/Staffordshire Bull Terrier mix that was brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter as a stray on 4/19. Mia is more than ready to leave the confines of the shelter after 3 months and settle into a home in which she will be cherished and loved. She weighs about 45 pounds, is 4-5 years old and is spayed. She came in looking as though she had not been well cared for with scrapes on her face, scruffy fur, some flaky scaly skin, and underweight, but with a daily healthy food and the care she has received she looks far more healthy. She has a moderate activity level and does jump on you some, though not excessively. She does fine on a leash. She has had at least one litter of pups. Mia is happy to receive treats and does so politely. She's friendly and likes to receive loving attention. She's a playful girl and enjoys toys. She found the cozy doggie bed in the room in which I did her eval and she enjoyed the soft and comfortable feel of it. This tail-wagging, lively gal would be thrilled to find her very own loving home in which she would be allowed to live inside because it seems highly probable that she has been a backyard dog. Won't you please assist Mia in finding her dream home?
