About Minnie

Minnie prefers a home without cats, as she doesn’t get along with them. While she appears shy or reserved inside her kennel, she tends to blossom and warm up quickly once she’s outside and meets new people. Minnie is handleable, doesn’t show any biting tendencies, and responds well to gentle interaction. She’d be more comfortable in a home with children over 8, since smaller kids may be a bit too energetic for her tastes. If you have another dog, a meet-and-greet is encouraged to be sure it’s a good fit. If you want to test her with your household pets, that can be arranged, though it’s important to introduce any new animals cautiously. Like many dogs coming from a shelter setting, Minnie will need time and a steady routine as she settles in. The first days and weeks might bring some nerves or new behaviors, so patience and steady structure will help her adapt. She’ll thrive when given attention, boundaries, and time to adjust. Your new best friend is just one click away.
