Minnie

Minnie is a 10 month old female Cross-Breed puppy, playful and trusting, yet sadly overlooked. She is small-medium in size, weighing 16 kg and standing at 50-51 cm, perfect for a knee-height companion. MINNIE is at Foster now, with other dogs and older kids. And this is what they say: ” What a joy it’s been to train such a smart and eager pup like Minnie! In just 3 weeks at our foster home, she’s made remarkable improvement in impulse control, obedience, and even tried her paw at agility exercises with so much excitement. Can you believe how far she’s come in such a short time? Previously, we mentioned some of her challenges, but let’s see how she’s improved: “Can be unsure around pushchairs.” Not anymore! Minnie is now completely calm around pushchairs, whether they’re coming toward her, walking beside her, or passing by. She’s unbothered and confident. “May bark or chew on your shoes sometimes.” While Minnie still loves to carry shoes around the house, we’re working on giving her a more appropriate comfort object. It seems to be a part of her young age, but she’s already shifting her focus to healthier chew options like bones, Kongs, or long-lasting treats like dried ears and tails. Minnie’s even turned it into a game—she loves tossing treats in the air and chasing them around the house. And the best part? No more barking at home! When she first arrived, she was quite demanding, but now she patiently waits for her meals, even with our two other dogs around. She’s grown more confident and no longer feels the need to follow us like a shadow. While we haven’t left her alone at home yet, she’s happy to stay in a room by herself as long as the door is open. “Reactive on walks.” Minnie can be reactive if we’re not fully focused on her, but we lovingly call her our “mindfulness trainer” for this reason. When we stay engaged—by changing pace, asking her to come, throwing treats for her to find—she’s fantastic. No distractions from birds, squirrels, or even people. It’s only when we get distracted ourselves that some of her reactivity returns, so with the right attention, Minnie is a joy to walk! “Sometimes unsure around kids or female dogs.” Minnie is improving here, too. She’s now playful with most dogs, regardless of their size or gender. When it comes to children, she can still be a bit reactive, especially when they approach her too quickly, but with patience and positive reinforcement, she’s getting better. If you’ve fallen for this sweet girl and want to help her continue blossoming into the perfect companion, don’t hesitate to fill out an application! Minnie is still a puppy and eager to learn, and she loves cuddles. She’s waiting for someone to give her the forever home she deserves! ” MINNIE is adorable pup, too young to be perfect in everything. She is can be nervous and shy at start but she is very friendly and playful. She is very loving, very curious and smart. MINNIE can be unsure of young kids,  but she loves older kids 13+. She will perfectly suit home with the other friendly and confident  large or medium male dog as really enjoy canine company Select CountyAvonBedfordshireBerkshireBordersBuckinghamshireCambridgeshireCentralCheshireClevelandClwydCornwallCounty AntrimCounty ArmaghCounty DownCounty FermanaghCounty LondonderryCounty TyroneCumbriaDerbyshireDevonDorsetDumfries and GallowayDurhamDyfedEast SussexEssexFifeGloucestershireGrampianGreater ManchesterGwentGwynedd CountyHampshireHerefordshireHertfordshireHighlands and IslandsHumbersideIsle of ManIsle of WightKentLancashireLeicestershireLincolnshireLondonLothianMerseysideMid GlamorganMiddlesexNorfolkNorth YorkshireNorthamptonshireNorthumberlandNottinghamshireOxfordshirePowysRutlandShropshireSomersetSouth GlamorganSouth YorkshireStaffordshireStrathclydeSuffolkSurreyTaysideTyne and WearWarwickshireWest GlamorganWest MidlandsWest SussexWest YorkshireWiltshireWorcestershire
