My story

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

Animal Profile: Midge is a tiny cutie that is looking for a new home here in Seattle . She is estimated to be 3 years old and weighs just 5 pounds. Midge is bound to find a lucky family here in the PNW!

Foster Update: Miss Midge says you can keep your long walks on the beach, your mountain hikes, and your Sunday mornings at the Farmer’s Market. You can also save your tennis balls and squeaky toys for a dog that cares. Midge is a card-carrying introvert and the first two words in her love language are Warm and Safe. This gentle and quiet soul chooses to spend most of the day napping in her heated she-shed (crate). If you want to woo this sweet girl, you’d be wise to invest in warm blankets, heating pads and tiny winter sweaters. She gets COLD! Midge was plucked from the toasty SW desert, and she does not appreciate our beautiful, crisp fall and winter weather.

Don’t get me wrong, Midge isn’t standoffish. Once she feels safe, she will greet you with the most adorable wiggles and kisses. However, she is very sensitive and would do best in a nurturing, serene, adult-only household. She is polite with our small resident dog but doesn’t seek out his attention. Midge has gained confidence in the safe space of her foster home, but we are still working with her to gain confidence in the outside world. A walk on unknown territory is met with a "I'll pass" from Midge. While Midge doesn't seek out attention from the resident, another confident canine companion in the home may just show Midge the ropes.  Bonus – Midge sleeps through the night like a champ, and she likes to sleep late!

 Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550 which includes spay/neuter, core vaccinations per AVMA standards, heartworm test if applicable, and microchip with registration. Your adoption fee may be tax deductible as DGS is a 501c3 organization. All adoption fees go toward the care of all dogs in our rescue.
