Pretty in Pink

Mia got a pretty pink sweater for Christmas.
Her sister Millie got one too.

Pretty in Pink Sisters.

Side view.

Back view. Cool skull and bones to offset the pretty pinkness.

Sleepy view. Mia thinks her pretty pink sweater is perfect for lounging.

It also goes well with her Mia tag.

Mia is still looking for a foster or a forever home. She has only 9 days until she must be out of her boarding facility where she has been since October. Might you be her forever person?

If you are intersted in adopting or fostering Mia please email Susan at sarrobin@sbcglobal.net or call her at 773-512-1053. Mia has until January 12 to find a place to sleep.

Pretty pink sweater is included!

Spiffin up at the Spa for the New Year

When we arrived at Soggy Paws in the South Loop, Mia wasn't too sure she was going to enjoy this experience - there were a few dogs barking and big tubs everywhere. But by the time Ellie (fantastic staffer) helped Mia and I get situated she was begining to relax.
First came a good smelling face wash with her own washcloth and then the shampoo, a whole bottle just for Mia. Mia thought the sudsy part was kind of fun
but the butt scritches were the best part.

After a few rinses, it was time for the towel dry and towel modeling...

Blue is definitely Mia's color - don't you think?

She could have been a silent film star.

The obligatory reindeer antlers were not her favorite part of the day.

But her new friend (Soggy Paws staffer) Ellie was definitely a favorite of Mia's.

Thanks Soggy Paws (Kevin and Ellie) for a great spa day for Mia, it was just the pampering she needed to ease the tension of the boarding life and just the boost she needed to get ready for her exciting new year.

Mia knows this year is going to be great - with only 11 days to go to find a new home (or foster home) before she has to leave the boarding facility, she knows her friends and fans are working tirelessly passing along her story, her flyer, her pictures and her website to find a place for her to safely land on January 12.

If you would like to donate to Mia's very hefty boarding fee please use the donate button on the right. If you would like more information about fostering or adopting Miss Mia please email Susan at sarrobin@sbcglobal.net.

If you could pass along Mia's plight to one more person she would greatly appreciate it!

Looking Forward to the New Year

Mia is feeling a little sad about the past year but she is confident that the New Year will bring a new best friend to love, a new home, maybe a few new toys and lots of good times and kisses. She thanks everyone for their help on her behalf.

T-13 days and counting until Mia needs to be out of her boarding facility. We have had several email inquiries and are keeping our fingers crossed that a forever home or at least a foster home are right around the corner. Please keep passing along Mia's story to be sure we have her safely in a home by January 12.

Happy New Year!

Two Weeks to Find a Home

We just found out that we have two weeks to find Mia a home or a foster home, she is no longer able to stay at the boarding facility where she has been since October. Her behavior is deteriorating there, from boredom and anxiety and probably depression and the bill is really mounting. We now owe $1700.

If everyone can pass along Mia's website and blog to everyone they know, we will find her a place. And donations are very welcome too!

While Mia enjoys napping in my car during our weekly outings, she would prefer not to live in my car!

If you are interested in fostering or adopting Mia please email Susan at sarrobin@sbclgobal.net.

Thanks for helping us to help Mia - she is worth it!

The Blue Coat

A couple of weeks ago "in between snow storms" Mia and I headed to the lake for a walk with a brand new blue coat. All weather, fleece like material for the lining, pretty color, snazzy belt,

very stylish...

Isn't she pretty?

Mia was very good about humoring me and posing for pics - cuz she understands her responsibility to her fans who enjoy doggy fashion.

But all of a sudden she couldn't contain herself anymore....

Half dressed dog smiling and very proud of herself...

Naked dog laughing at me and my blue coat which I had to carry back to the car...

Silly girl.

If you are interested in fostering or adopting Mia please call Susan at 773-512-1053 or email her at sarrobin@sbcglobal.net.

Happy Christmas Everyone!

Torturing Mia in Petco for

Being a Celebrity

Mia has become a bit of a celebrity, people from all over the country are finding out about her and her search for a good home. These are some things Mia has learned about being a celebrity in case you are thinking of becoming one:

Celebrity dogs have to look good in clothes...and they have to be ready to pose at any second for photos...the paparazzi are everywhere....

Celebrity dogs have to keep their eyes on the treats and focus all of their attention on getting all of the treats that they deserve. Sometimes tricks like sitting, shaking paw and spinning like a princess are required so you must practise...a lot.

Luckily celebrities get to take long naps in the car when they are being chauffered home.

Its tough being famous...

Thanks to everyone who has inquired about Mia, passed her pictures, her website and her blog link to friends and family, and to those of you who have donated for her care. We appreciate all of you so much, together we will find her a home!
