Story
Meet Misty — a playful, curious 9-year-old soft coated Wheaton Terrier ready for her forever home!
Misty’s story began in a Texas shelter, where she spent about a month before coming into rescue. During that time, she lost weight and battled kennel cough. She also had surgery to remove some mammary chain tumors and a tumor near the base of her tail– all of which were luckily benign!
Thankfully, she’s made a full recovery and is thriving now — healthy, happy, and weighing 21.5 lbs. She eats from a slow-feed bowl and gets three small meals a day to help her maintain a healthy weight and routine. She does shed a little bit and is not hypoallergenic.
This smart and affectionate girl loves her people and enjoys being part of the action. She may seem timid at first, but after you throw her favorite toy (her squeaky ball), or give her ear scratches, she warms up right away. She loves being with her people and will play fetch all day if you let her!
A family that’s home often or can include her in daily life would make her happiest. While she gets along with other dogs, she would do best as the only dog or with a calm, submissive canine companion.
She’s learning to walk nicely on a leash, loves to sniff new scents on her adventures, and rides beautifully tethered in the back seat. She is quickly learning to sit, stay and give paw. She can also be a bit of a fashionista! A securely fenced yard would be ideal for her to safely explore and stretch her legs (and play fetch!).
Misty has some IVDD (intervertebral disc disease), which causes a bit of weakness in her back legs, but she gets around just fine and enjoys her walks, playtime, and exploring the yard. She has to take it slow going up and down stairs, but she continues to gain strength in her back legs every day!
After everything she’s overcome, Misty is ready to find her forever family — one that will appreciate her resilient spirit, loyal heart, and joyful personality.
