My personality

My story

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

Mimi is a goofy, spirited, shy but loving 2 year old Pit Bull/Labrador Retriever mix who loves to go on walks, play with other dogs, and be silly around the house!

Mimi was surrendered to our local high kill shelter by her previous owner, who could no longer keep her. Mimi is already a reserved and shy dog, so being in a loud and unfamiliar shelter setting was understandably hard on her. Due to her fear and nervousness, she was put on the euthanasia list soon after arriving at the shelter. Luckily, we were able to save her before that happened!
Since being with us, Mimi has started to show her goofy side a little more and while she is still rather anti-social, you can tell she does want to be near people and be able to trust them. At our facility, she is let out with her fellow adoptable dogs on a schedule. She mainly sticks around them and plays very well (and hard!) but she will come up to you and display some excitement. She is not the biggest lover of pets yet, but once she gets into a home environment she will no doubt turn into such a cuddly girl!

Though she does love other dogs, Mimi's true soul mate is FOOD. Meal time gets her the most excited you'll ever see her! This is when she'll get the most vocal and let you know that your time is ticking to get that food ready for her! (She can be a bit bossy if she thinks you're not preparing it quickly enough). The fastest way to Mimi's heart is through her stomach, and she is highly food motivated and smart which makes training go much more smoothly. She is quite an intelligent girl and can pick up on what you're feeling or wanting her to do really well. She is a gentle soul and just wants someone to give her the best rest of her life ever. She'll need an understanding, patient, loving person to help her through her challenges and in return, she'll shower you with loyalty, affection, and companionship. Please consider giving this shy girl a chance!

Mimi is crate, potty, and leash trained, has good house manners, and is good with other dogs. She is incredibly smart and easily trainable once you gain her trust! Mimi is about 55lbs and is fully grown (though she will definitely try to convince you that she needs to be fed more).

Mimi is located in Houston TX but can be transported to most US states for adoption.
