Meet Mimosa
When you meet Mimosa, you will understand immediately where the expression, “melts in your arms” comes from. Mims loves to love. She is truly an example of how resilient a dog can be, in spite of their past. Mimosa was seized from a neglect case with other dogs who all looked more like skeletons, and she was being the best mom to two little babies at the same time. Mimosa is now learning all about the good life thanks to her amazing foster family. Even the couch, which was once a spooky object, is now the place she jumps to happily. Mimosa is even taking group training classes thanks to our friend Savannah at @savvydt , which is building her confidence in new spaces, around new dogs, and she is learning all sorts of good behaviors and commands! Mimosa loves every person she meets, is good with kids, is cat safe but is still learning not to chase if the cat is a runner, and is dog selective. Her foster family says she is an angel who loves to help with yard work - especially if dirt is involved, likes to explores new breweries and lunch spots, has the best sploots and full body wags, and just truly aims to make you feel like the most special person in the world. Mimosa’s ideal dog friend would be one who respects boundaries. She prefers slower intros, as we have found she gets uncomfortable and defensive if a dog she does not know invades her space too quickly, though once she trusts her dog friend she trusts fully, and she actively plays with her foster sister currently. She is not reactive, and goes on outtings around other dogs and trains with other dogs without issues. We have seen Mimosa grow so much since we got her, and every day she learns a little more how safe and loved she is, and we can’t imagine how much MORE amazing this lady is going to be even a couple months from now. Mimosa starts heartworm treatment next week, and we are so grateful she is getting to do her healing in a safe space with us. She is still looking for her forever home, so If you think Mimosa may be the girl for you, message us or reach out at 904-392-3416 and check out our story for more cuteness!

Adopt happiness. Our adoption process is unique in that we work with you every step of the way to ensure that we’re placing the right dog with the right family. First, we like to have a phone chat to get a feel for the kind of dog that you’re looking for. Next, we have you fill out a foster application. After that, we come to your house with a carload of dogs for you to choose from and have you foster the dog of your choosing for a week to make sure that it’s a good fit. The last step is to finalize the adoption. And then congrats, you’re a new member of the Swamp Haven family and your happy tail has just begun!
Our adoption fee is $300.
