About Minnie

Minnie is around a year and a half to two years old, according to her veterinarian. She has been spayed and is up to date on all vaccinations. House trained and weighing about 24 pounds, she enjoys car rides and is an affectionate companion. While her dominant breeds appear to be Jack Russell Terrier and Parson Terrier, all we know for certain is that she's a mixed breed. High energy like her Jack Russell lineage, Minnie is not just playful but also intelligent. She’s happy just to lounge on the sofa next to her person. However, Minnie suffers from separation anxiety due to her past of abandonment. She would thrive in a home where someone works from home or is retired. Minnie is currently in Texarkana, TX, with the Greg King Canine Recovery, where she will be part of a transport on June 10th to various adoption locations. Her adoption fee is $300, and that’s only due at the time of pickup. As far as her companions go, she gets along well with dogs, making her an ideal addition to any pet-friendly home.
