MINNIE - BORDER COLLIE / HOUND / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Border Collie / Hound / Mixed. Minnie is oh so mini, pretty, snuggly, and still a puppy! This low-rider Border Collie is really enjoying learning about her world. Her foster says that Minnie takes an inquisitive and playful stance when seeing animals from afar, and would likely, very much enjoy a well-matched playmate. Minnie has visited the foster's neighbor, who has a cat, and although it was sleeping upstairs Minnie sniffed all of the cat stuff (beds, scratch pads, etc) with casual interest…..far different than the fixed, assertive stance she takes when near the scent of a squirrel, so she may be able to cohabitate with felines, but we are not yet sure. Minnie would do well in a home where she can be walked with regularity as she is still very much a high-energy puppy. Her forster believes that she wold be fine with respectful kids over five-years old. She can be a bull in a china shop at times and would possibly step on or knock over smaller ones. Still a bit skittish in her new environment, Minnie can be afraid of a quick approach, and needs a stable and calm home, one in which she can feel safe. A townhouse or house would work best, as Minnie loves to run and roam. Minnie's foster believes that an apartment would not be ideal, unless her person worked from home and could offer her good, long walks morning, noon, evening, and night. She would otherwise need a fenced yard and ideally, a playmate. Minnie has a lot of energy and her foster believes that hound in her will stray if not properly housed and exercised. Minnie's foster believes that this pretty girl was previously spoiled- on laps, in bed with her people, fed table scraps, etc. as she loves attention and treats! Will you be the person to play, snuggle, and treat this little Border Collie like a princess? PAW adopts in the MD, VA, DC, northern PA region.
