Meet Cassidy, a sweet 2-year-old 27 pound laid back girl.  She’s a long-legged gal so possibly a terrier mix with maybe a little Chihuahua in her blood. Cassidy was found as a stray in southern Missouri and was never claimed.  We were told she was found scared and standing in the middle of the road completely confused.  It was probably likely she was dumped as it seems sadly to be very common. Fortunately, animal control found her and kept her safe until she could be brought into rescue.

Cassidy is a very sweet girl and has been friendly with everyone she meets.  She would, however, do better in a home with older kids as we don’t know her personality around younger kids. She does wonderful with her smaller foster siblings and is completely fine with the cats and shows them no interest at all. At just 27 pounds she’s the perfect size.

Cassidy seems to be more on the laid-back calm side and doesn’t show a lot of interest in chasing and playing with the other dogs in the home.  She’s totally friendly with them, just not a big player. She’d much rather be snoozing on the couch or playing with her toys.

She seems to walk well on a leash and is completely potty trained.  She goes to the door when she needs to go outside.  Currently she sleeps gated in the kitchen at night but has free range of her foster home when foster mom is gone.

Her Christmas wish is to fine her forever home that is filled with lots of soft stuffy toys to play with.
