A gentle dog who needs a quieter start Mina is a soft, sensitive dog who seems to be doing her best in a setting that's a little too loud for her. She's shown nice progress already--walking well on leash, checking in with her handler, taking treats, and recovering from startles better than she did at first. There's a thoughtful, gentle dog in there. She can still get overwhelmed by sudden noise and busy activity. When that happens, Mina may freeze, stare, or try to create distance, so she'll need an adopter who understands that confidence comes first. She doesn't need pressure. She needs calm handling, patience, and time to settle in. In quieter moments, she explores, comes when called, and tolerates handling well. Mina looks like a good fit for someone who appreciates the quieter dogs and doesn't expect instant confidence. A lower-traffic home and steady routine would likely help her a lot. If you have a soft spot for sensitive dogs and the patience to let one unfold at her own pace, come meet Mina.We are open to the public Tuesday - Sunday (1PM - 5PM)! No Appointments required!
