Sissy is this week’s Dog of the Week. She is a two year old, female, American Bull Dog Mix: Meet Sissy! Sissy is a sweet but shy gal that just arrived here in Maine from Mississippi. Sissy can be a little leery of new people when she first meets them, and a little vocal as well, but she warms up pretty quickly. She loves to go for walks. Sissy is going to need a patient home, she had a rough start before she arrived at the rescue that saved her in Mississippi, and even though she is a very sweet girl, she will need some patience and understanding in her new home.
