SPCA adopt me: Mitsi

Mitsi is an adventurous 7-month-old staffordshire-cross puppy who needs an active family and a well-fenced backyard.

The brindle-coat pup has boundless energy during the day, but come night-time, she loves cuddles and curling up next to her human companions.

SPCA canine attendant Taryn Mager says Mitsi is a happy-go-lucky puppy who will make a great addition to a family with school-aged children.

"She's a real sweetheart. A typical puppy but not too over-the-top," says Mrs Mager.

Mitsi is good-natured but will require continuing socialisation and obedience training as well as daily mental and physical stimulation. She has had a long stay at the SPCA despite her nature.

"Unfortunately, brindles often have the toughest time finding a home. People don't like them because they think they look like mongrels, but we often find they have the best personalities."

To adopt Mitsi, or any other animal at the village, contact the SPCA on (09) 256-7300. Mitsi's village ID is 200868.
