Hi! My name is Mia, but my dad’s call me Cuddlebug! I am a very happy and well adjusted 5 year old Terrier mix little girl who is looking for my furever family. I like to play so it would be great if I had other dogs or cats to play with or even a human sibling in my new home.
I love to snuggle with my humans and give kisses all the time. I’m great at eating (I love my food) and am easy to give my meds to. Speaking of meds, I am heartworm positive so VIP will explain that to you at the end of my greeting. I am good going outside, if you have a fenced yard I can go on my own (with supervision of course cuz’ I’m such a wittle girl) I can walk on my leash, but I like to explore when I’m out and I’ve learned how to use pee pads like my sister dogs do, but once I get in a routine with you I should learn house training in my new home quickly.
Do you have toys at your house? I love toys! I stole my kitty brothers mouse and sister dogs dino. I’ll chase the ball and bring it back to you, but I’m not big so it has to be the small ones. Want to sleep on the couch? I’m there. Want me to sleep in your bed? I’m there! I’m down for wherever you want to nap and I’m good about sleeping through the night!
Now, about that medicine stuff……I am heartworm positive, but don’t let that scare you! My friends at VIP Rescue cover ALL the costs associated with my treatment. You’ll need to live within an hour of the St Petersburg, Fl area due to my time sensitive appointments with the “dog”tor. This is very very important, can’t be late for those! During my treatment, I’ll need to hang low, very short leash walks and no zoomies for a bit. Once my treatment is completed, the “Dog”tor will let us know when it’s ok for me to resume normal doggie stuff, but not until then, k? I’ve been spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and I’m on my heartworm and flea prevention. I’m really hoping my “fur”ever family will come along real soon! Please keep in mind this beautiful girl will require grooming. Grooming can run from $60-125.
Please visit www.viprescue.org and fill out an adoption application for me! Kisses and tail wags, Mia xoxoxo
Adoption Requirements: You must be a Florida resident, and be at least 25 years of age to adopt. To qualify for adoption, all of the pets in your home must be spayed or neutered, be current on all vaccines, preventatives, and have received consistent veterinary care. If you’ve had more than one Vet in the past 3 years, please provide all the names and number for each vet. This breed typically lives 14-18 years, so please keep that lifespan in mind, as your age should be appropriate for the pets estimated lifespan.
All of us at VIP Rescue are Volunteers, with families, jobs and pets of our own, so please be kind and patient. We select the most fitting application for the dog, not necessarily the timeliest adoption application. Please make sure to read the entire bio on the pet you’re interested in before applying to adopt to make sure you meet the pets needs. Thank you for thinking rescue.
