About Missy
Winter Woof Drive... May $200 Reduced Adoption Fee🫶
The one thing in the entire world Missy loves more than ANYTHING is toys!!
She is like a kid in a candy store when she sees one sitting on a shelf, she actively runs for it and grabs it and starts running around shaking it.
HOUSEHOLD- Missy has shown that she likes to be around her people as much as possible. For this reason we are looking for someone who doesn’t work full time, or either works from home.
Missy has shown she is confident around everyone she meets. She can be a little bouncy at times and very over excited when she plays so would be better suited to kids over 6 years old or kids used to being around playful dogs.
Missy will also need an abundance of toys provided to her daily
ON-GOING TRAINING- Missy knows how to sit. She also absolutely loves doing zoomies with people. She loves when you get on the ground with her and play pounce at her. She can’t get enough of this game.
Missy does get very over excited when she is doing zoomies and can use some open mouth play with you. Missy also thinks it’s a game to jump up on you when she is in her excited zone, so she will need some boundaries set in her new home and some ongoing training in this area.
ON LEAD- Missy is pretty relaxed walking on a lead. She can pull at times but is easy to control.
PLAY/TOYS- Missy and toys….LOVES THEM!!
She is fine when you touch her toys and isn’t protective over them. She has shown that her favourite toys are plush ones.
OTHER DOGS- Missy has shown us a preference for playing with male dogs. She has no issues with male dogs jumping on her and being bouncy. Female dogs she is not at ease and prefers not to engage with them.
Missy is dog social in an outdoor setting however in a home environement, Missy has shown signs of jealously and not wanting to share her humans with a resident canine friend.
CATS/OTHER ANIMALS- When Missy walked into our cattery she was flighty. She was sniffing around the room and could smell the cats before she saw one but she didn’t want to get too close. We recommended no cats in Missy's new home.
CARE/GROOMING- Missy has a short coat that is a little thicker than a staffy coat so she might shed occasionally. Missy has shown us no negative reactions when brushing her or cutting her nails. She can get a little bit over excited when you are handling her.
EXERCISE- Missy isn’t suited to being off lead where there are other dogs at the moment due to her insecurities around female dogs. A daily walk and a play in the backyard with her abundance of toys will keep her happy.
NUTRITION- Missy isn’t a fussy eater and has no special dietary requirements.
Missy is very gentle when she is taking a treat. She likes to walk away when she is given one but she allows you to pat her while she is eating and take the treat off her. She has shown us no food aggression.
BREED - Very Pretty Staffy x (Kelpie or Border Collie) who is approx 12 kgs.
Missy is located at our Erina Shelter and her $500 adoption fee covers: desexing, lifetime registration, microchipping, current vaccination, flea & worming treatments.
If you tick all of Missy's boxes and can provide her with a loving home, please lodge your adoption interest online.
