My Name Is MIMI!
Large and in charge — and every bit as lovable as she is big — Mimi is a 10-year-old, 118-pound sweetheart with the most stunning ice-blue eyes you’ve ever seen. Set against her fluffy black fur, they absolutely sparkle. She’s basically a giant, cuddly furball with supermodel eyes.
Mimi came to the shelter as an owner surrender and previously lived outdoors (poor girl!). Despite that, she is incredibly friendly, playful, and gentle. It’s clear she has so much love to give and is more than ready to spend her golden years inside a cozy home where she belongs.
Right now, Mimi’s biggest journey is a health one. She’s currently considered obese at 118 pounds, and she needs to lose a significant amount of weight to feel more comfortable and even breathe easier. She does breathe heavily on walks — carrying extra weight is hard work — but the good news? She loves her walks. Getting out and about, strolling at her own pace, stopping for little sniffs along the way — it’s truly her happy place. And when she walks, her big hips and fluffy rump swish side to side in the cutest way. It’s impossible not to smile watching her.
She’s easy to leash, easy to manage, and an absolute joy to spend time with. Mimi would thrive with someone committed to helping her gradually slim down through portion control, easy going daily exercise, and lots of encouragement. With consistency and love, she has every chance to feel so much better.
Mimi can go home with you today. She’s ready to trade the outdoors for soft beds, belly rubs, and a family who will cherish her. If you’re looking for a sweet, steady companion with striking blue eyes and an even more beautiful heart, Mimi is your girl.

My Special Considerations
This pup is being spotlighted for one reason only, time. They have been overlooked in the shelter for far too long, and would love a break from the shelter environment where they can relax and just be a dog. The longer they stay in the shelter, the higher the risk of them deteriorating behaviorally and/or medically. If you'd like to foster or adopt this pup, please come in to meet them!
