About dogs named Misty

The following are 18 profiles of dogs named Misty from our database of 91 dogs with the name Misty.

• “My name is Misty! I am a 1 year old rough collie. I am active and love to play, and like lakes but don’t swim in pools. I’m picky about swimming. I love to run and play and I am great with other dogs. I have a submissive play style, but I do like to herd! I am pretty well trained, but I’m still learning. I have my Canine Good Citizen and I’m working towards the Urban and the Advanced titles as well. I love to make friends of all sizes, but would do best with dogs around my size! I have a super long nose, so some dogs may get uncomfortable when I sniff them. I don’t understand that my nose is that much farther away than my eyes are! (50lbs).“

  — Kristine T.

  — Nicole L.

• “I am black with white markings that kind of make me look like a border collie mix, but I think I look more like a terrier. I have a curly tail too! I am super kind and sweet. I don't jump on people or bark hardly ever. I was adopted by my furever family in August 2021 and I love them so much; they certainly spoil me. I am a very playful person, but I can sometimes get overwhelmed and shy. I do love EVERYONE though once I get to know them.“

  — Aspen D.

  — Heidi J.

• “Hi guys, I am a cautious lady- so please don’t approach quickly. I love all people- kids- cats, and most dogs. I am super smart, and my humans are the best friends! I enjoy sun bathing, bone chewing, and slow walks for time to sniff.“

  — Ayla R.
