Minnie’s true superpower is her affection. She is a world-class snuggler who follows her foster sister everywhere, often falling asleep with her head rested gently on the other dog’s back. While she’s a sensitive soul who can be shy with new people or “scary” objects like brooms, she is incredibly gentle and knows her “sit” command. She is nearly house-trained on a regular schedule and is currently mastering her crate training, where she already enjoys all her meals.

In the house, Minnie is a low-mischief roommate who prefers a chew-bone over trouble. She’s respectful of cats and does great with older kids. She hasn’t been around younger kids at this time. On the leash, she can be a bit vocal—mostly because she’s following the lead of her foster siblings—but she is small and easy to redirect. She isn’t a high-energy yard runner; she prefers two steady walks a day and plenty of couch time.

Minnie is looking for a family that appreciates a “velcro dog.” Whether she’s alerting you to a package delivery or curling up on your lap for the evening, she just wants to be part of the team. If you have a spot on your sofa and a heart for a loyal companion, Minnie is ready to fill it.
