Pet of the Week
DFW
Humane Society 
Mia is a Domestic Short Hair female that is spayed. She weighs about 10 lbs. and is White in color. She is about 3 years old. His reason for surrender: Husband doesn't want her.
Don't I look beautiful. I am as sweet as I look. I am a white 3 year old spayed female. My owner couldn't keep me anymore, so I am anxiously looking for a new forever home. I am very affectionate, and I love people and other animals. Come on by and I will charm you with my good looks and personality.
If you can adopt Mia and give her a good home, please contact the DFW Humane Society at 972-253-3333, or check out one of the many other pets that need a home by visiting their web site.
