r as a stray and was quickly scooped up by a well-meaning family. Unfortunately, despite everyone’s best efforts, Minnie and the resident dog in the home haven’t been able to comfortably coexist off-leash indoors, so she’s now looking for a better match. From what we’ve seen, Minnie is actually quite dog-friendly. Outside on leash, she showed interest in meeting and playing with the resident dog. However, differences in energy levels and communication styles made things challenging inside the home. With the right introduction and a compatible canine companion—or as your one-and-only—Minnie has so much potential to thrive. When meeting new people, Minnie can be a little shy at first, but her curiosity always wins out. Once she feels safe, her true personality comes through: affectionate, sweet, and full of charm. She quickly warms up and becomes a total cuddle bug who loves attention and companionship. Minnie is crate trained and mostly housetrained. She rides well in the car, handles well, and already knows “sit.” She enjoys playing with toys and may get a little mouthy during play, but she would do wonderfully with continued positive reinforcement training to help polish her skills. She has shown no interest in chasing cats while out on walks and has done well with children—her current family shares that she’s been great with their 6-year-old grandson. Minnie is the kind of dog who just needs a little time to settle in and feel secure. In return, she’ll give you endless love, laughs, and companionship. Whether in a home with another well-matched dog or as your solo sidekick, Minnie is ready to find her forever family. Could you be the one to give Minnie the fresh start she deserves? Minnie will be brought up to date on vaccines and tested for heartworm. Minnie has been spayed/neutered and has a microchip. Her adoption donation is $450. Adopting a dog is a commitment that will require annual veterinary care at a minimum, training, exercise, enrichment, etc. Pet care is not cheap or easy and adopters should consider the costs, time and training prior to adoption. After all these dogs have been through they deserve a loving, committed home. How to Adopt Me! If you are interested in learning more about me, and possibly making me part of your family, please go to wag-on-inn .

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
