What is your favorite part of working at Bitty Bites?Working with pleasant staff makes coming in to work every day enjoyable. When the work gets tough, I can turn to my favorite coworker, Bear, for some puppy love!
Adopted from the James River Greyhounds rescue in 2017, Mia was a race dog in Pensacola, Florida, for the first 3 years of her life. She is 5 now and is enjoying the retired life! She is the calmest dog we know and loves to be lazy all day long! She has passed multiple obedience and tricks classes, although she couldn't master the riding the skateboard trick. She loves low-energy activities like letting kids read books to her. We are now working on her Canine Good Citizen certification and will then work on her Therapy Dog Certification with the AKC-recognized Alliance of Therapy Dogs. You will see her in the office closer to summer!
