Notes: Misty is a gentle sweet girl who is affectionate and loves people and plays well with dogs of all sizes. She is house trained and walks well on leash. Misty is still a bit underweight at 45-50 pounds and should end up at 50-55. She loves people and should do fine with children because she is a gentle easy-going girl. Misty would love a forever home where she gets lots of attention and time from her family and can learn to be a couch potato. She also looks forward to having a big fenced yard where she can run and play with a dog friend and maybe some kids too.
