• Mistletoe's Story

  Mistletoe was brought to our attention around Christmas time in 2024. The last photo above tells the story. Mistletoe was kept in a yard, on a chain, surrounded by literal trash, and forcibly bred, repeatedly.

  Mistletoe will need a very special home because she is an amazing soul who needs a patient and understanding adopter. She is house trained, potty trained, and crate trained. She is so incredibly loving after all she’s been through and she loves to sunbathe!

  Mistletoe will need to be the only pet in an adult-only home. She thrives on routine and calmness in the home and she can become anxious when left alone. She would truly be the perfect companion for someone who works from home or is a retired homebody.
