Hello, I'm Mimosa, a sweet and smart lady with a mellow disposition. My friends here say I'm quite the character, with a funny sense of humor that keeps them laughing. I'm friendly and love to cuddle, but I also appreciate my independence. I can entertain myself when you're busy, but I'll always be there to welcome you home with a wagging tail. I prefer the company of people over pets so I would like to be the only furry one in the house. I've got all the love you could ever need, so why share? Adopt me, and let's fill our days with laughter, cuddles, and unconditional love. She shows aggression towards other dogs without a slow introduction but has played with some of my other male dogs.
