Our Pet of the Week is a Shortstack Sweetheart Stealing Hearts Everywhere

Looking to add a little more love - and a lot more wiggles - to your life? Say hello to MIKA, our pet of the week from It Takes a Village! This pint-sized Pit Bull Terrier is just over a year old and comes fully loaded with charm, personality, and a tail that just won't quit.

MIKA is what we like to call a “shortstack with a big heart.” She may be compact, but don’t let her size fool you - she's got enough love to fill a stadium. Her gorgeous coat of beige, white, and grey is only outshone by her lovable, goofball nature.

Why MIKA Might Just Be Your Soulmate in a Snuggle Suit

Whether she’s melting hearts with her puppy-dog eyes or winning over strangers with her playful spirit, MIKA is a social butterfly who never met a belly rub she didn’t like. She’s affectionate, friendly, and totally ready to become someone’s new best friend.

So, if you're dreaming of a furry sidekick who’s equal parts silly and sweet, MIKA is your gal! If you're ready to meet this sweetheart, apply at ITVrescue.org and prepare to fall in love.

If our pet of the week isn’t the right fit for your home, please visit It Takes a Village to see the other rescues that need to get fostered and adopted. And don't forget about their RENT A DOG Program. A quick fill form and copy of your photo ID will allow you time out with one of ITV's vetted shelter dogs. These day dates are great for the rescues - it gets them some exercise and new information to help us get them adopted. It’s been a big hit- so don’t miss out!
