About Minnie

Minnie is looking for a loving home as she transitions from a challenging environment. After spending her life in an overcrowded situation with many other dogs in Mississippi, she needs a foster or adopter who can help guide her into a new chapter in Cedarburg, WI. At just 1 year old, Minnie is a sweet little girl with a nervous disposition. The sights and sounds of a new home may overwhelm her at first, so it's important that her new family is patient and understanding. She will benefit from a calm environment where she can gradually gain confidence and learn to trust. She's friendly with other dogs and may thrive with a confident canine companion by her side. However, the basics of potty training, crate training, and leash walking are new to her, and she'll need a dedicated adopter to help her adjust to being a house dog. Her journey won't be without its challenges, but with the right support, Minnie can discover the joy of living in a loving home. If you're ready to foster or adopt Minnie, please take the first step and apply today.
