Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Missy, a sweet as pie 10 year old, 10 pound Yorkie girl being fostered in McKinney, TX. Only Texas applicants will be considered.
Hello everybody. I'm back and I can't wait to tell you everything that has happened to me in the past couple of months
First off I went to the dogter to get all checked out. So I got a full hysterectomy and a dental. I only lost one toof. I am all healthy and up to date on everything. We did discover that I am hard of hearing so I need to be approached gently. FM usually shows her hand in front of my face very slowly to let me know that she's coming to pet me. I also am a bit head shy, actually very head shy. Makes my FM think that my past was not too pleasant and that I may have been abused by being knocked around on the head. I sure wish I could talk people-talk so I could tell them what my past life was like.
So I am pawsitivly ready to find my furever furmily. I have my very own microchip in case I ever get lost. I've had all my shots. Ouch. And I had my mouth looked at too. I tested heartworm negative so now I am on Nexguard and Heartguard every month. My fecal showed no crazy wormy things in it. So I am good to go home with you.
I may be a mature girl, but I do like to play with my foster brother Cotton and act all puppyish. Sometimes he starts it but sometimes I start it. I am almost all potty trained. I let foster mom know when I got to go out by standing right in front of her and barking at her and I bark and bark and bark until I get to go out, but I usually do my business right off the bat. Sometimes I do make a boo-boo, but not too often. FM says I'm an easy girl to wash at home. I do get a little squirmy at the groomers.
It took me a while to finally relax here and I am still learning that I am safe. I just recently started to snuggle up to foster mom. I like to give her body bumps and rubs. At night time I become a sloth, and I slowly sneak my way up to her, and I lay down right next to her and sleep with her on the big person's bed. I really like that.
This is what I'd like to have for my furever home.
*Stay at home pawrents or work from home pawrents.
*A secure fenced in yard would be nice, but not a dealbreaker. NO CHAIN LINK FENCES.
*If you have another dog that would be pawsome but not truly necessary.
*No young children, because I am still very skittish.
*Apartment living would not be good for me because I do bark and my bark is very deep.
*Toys are not necessary because I'd rather play with you and love on you as I want to become your very own Velcro dog.
*Lots of good good tasty food lots of wonderful yummy treats. I haven't turned down a treat yet.
*I'd love to sleep with you in your bed but I can also sleep on the couch in the doggie bed but would love to keep you warm especially in the wintertime.
*I walk nicely on a leash. Actually foster mom says I have a very sassy walk.
So if you think you have the most pawfect pawsome home you will find a direct link for my very own application at the end of my biography. Please make sure you read the instructions on how to fill that out.
If you have any questions, you can reach out to my foster mom(she sometimes calls herself Fake Mom) cuz she know my real Mom is out there somewhere just waiting for me. Her email addy is
stickhors@gmail.com
That's all for now.
