Mia

My story

Say hello to Mia, a sweet and loving pitbull mix with a heart full of love and a belly ready for rubs! This beautiful girl is 2-3 years old and is looking for a forever home where she can be pampered and adored. Mia came to us as a transfer from a Southwest Virginia shelter, and it was clear she had been through a tough time. She arrived skinny and starved, which has led her to be a bit possessive over her food when other dogs are around. Feeding Mia separately from other pets is all it takes to make sure mealtime is stress-free. She is not food-aggressive with humans, and you can easily take her bowl away without any issues. This affectionate girl is a pro at sitting on command, especially when there are treats involved! She is eager to learn and would thrive in a home that can continue her training and shower her with love. Mia’s Ideal Home: - Can be the only dog or with a dog-friendly home that can feed pets separately - Loves people and craves attention, kisses, and belly rubs - Needs a home where she can feel safe and secure with consistent meals Mia is heartworm negative, almost fully vaccinated, and on monthly preventatives. She had a litter of puppies, so her spay surgery is scheduled soon. If you’re ready for a sweet, loving companion who will adore you endlessly, Mia could be the perfect fit for your family. 🐾 Ready to Adopt? Here's How! The first step in our adoption process is submitting an application through our website. Simply visit: https://www.hoovesandpaws.org/shelterluv.html, click on the pet’s photo to view their full bio, then click “Apply for Adoption” to get started. Please give us a few days to review your application. If approved, you’ll receive an email from adoptions@hoovesandpaws.org to schedule a meet and greet (including any necessary dog-to-dog introductions). If the meet and greet goes well and you’d like to move forward, we’ll schedule a home check—this means we’ll bring your new furry friend to your home ourselves. This helps ensure a smooth transition and gives your new pup a familiar face upon arrival. We’ll finalize the adoption at that time! Questions, comments, or concerns? Reach out to us anytime at adoptions@hoovesandpaws.org. We're here to help!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Mia, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
