Mia is the daughter of Mai Tai. They were brought to us in 2016 just after Mai Tai had given birth to a litter of pups. She had been someone’s pet, but they moved away leaving her and her new litter of pups locked in a garden with no food or water. Thankfully, a neighbor heard her and the pups crying and asked us to rescue them. Sadly, Mai Tai passed away in 2021, we think it was a cobra bite but are not 100% sure.
Mia is one of Mai Tai’s pups. Her siblings, Gaia, Karu (Foxy), and MacKaru still also live in the shelter. Mia is in the same compound as Gaia and the two are very close! They also lived together with their Mum and both were really sad for a few weeks after she passed away. 💔
Mia is super cute and very beautiful! Despite the somewhat rugged conditions they live in she manages to keep her stunning coat shiny and clean! She has a very cheeky glint in her eye (always!) and loves humans! She’s super easygoing with other dogs. She can be a little timid at the very start with humans she doesn’t know, but she is still learning to find her own paws (she used to take a cue from her Mum if Mum went up to the humans and let her know it was safe, she would follow, she now has to find her own way with this). Adorable wee dog.
