Follow Miso on Instagram at #lovepaws_miso

â€‹Miso ended up on the urgent list at a local overcrowded shelter and was rescued by Lovepaws just in time to save this sweet girl's life.

Miso’s favorite thing is her toy box. As her foster mom works, Miso will try to tempt her into a play session by bringing her one toy at a time then sitting patiently with a stuffed animal or ball in her mouth. She’s the perfect excuse for a 15 minute work break! When her foster mom comes home after being out, Miso bursts with excitement and grabs her stuffed flamingo to offer as a welcome home gift. Miso loves a good tug of war session and relaxing walks around the neighborhood where she greets dogs and people with a friendly sniff. She has a goofy habit of trying to look in car windows! But the thing she loves most of all is snuggling and being as close to her person as possible. You will not be lonely with Miso! As a bonus, she is extra lazy and cuddly in the mornings and lets her person sleep in.

Miso’s perfect day would start off a bit lazy to allow for several rounds of belly rubs in bed. She would take a long morning stroll around the neighborhood, reminding the squirrels who’s boss. For the rest of the day, she would rotate her three favorite toys for play sessions: her yellow squeaky ball for fetching, her rope toy for tug-of-war, and her stuffed flamingo (that no longer has much stuffing). Miso would enjoy a Kong with squirt cheese for an afternoon snack. After an evening walk, she would curl up with her person, rest her head on her person’s chest, and snooze

More about this rescue

LOVEPAWS was founded as an animal intake prevention program to help keep pets in homes and out of shelters. To do this, we offer various types of assistance to pet owners including our pet food pantry and our re-homing service. We help find new homes for pets whose owners cannot keep them but do not want to surrender their pet to the shelter. While our focus is on Prince George’s County, MD, we offer these services to the entire DC Metro area.

Our scope and mission has grown quickly since we were founded in 2019 and we now pull dogs and cats from open-admission, high-intake shelters in MD, VA and other Southern states. This has expanded our rescue to be able to save dogs and cats of all breeds. Our expanded mission is to save the lives of abandoned dogs and cats and place them in loving and permanent homes. While we are a non-breed-specific rescue, we are a pittie-friendly rescue that has a soft spot for the pit bulls at the Prince George’s County animal shelter. They face the heartbreaking reality of the county’s pit bull ban which makes them unavailable for adoption to the public. We are committed to stepping forward whenever we can and wherever there is the greatest need.

LOVEPAWS is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. We are an exclusively foster-based rescue with our foster network spanning MD, DC, and VA.
