MINNIE - MEET ME @ PETCO 9/5! - PARSON RUSSELL TERRIER / POODLE (MINIATURE) / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Parson Russell Terrier / Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed (long coat). This dog is in Tennessee. Adoption Donation $250 if picked up in TN, $325 plus transport fee for out-of-state adoptions. Minnie is a sweet little girl with a playful spirit and a heart that blooms once she knows she is safe. This 1-year-old, 18-pound Jack Russell mix enjoys zooming around the yard, playing chase with her canine foster brother, and finding leaves and sticks for a little entertainment. She may not be much of a toy enthusiast, but she is definitely a fan of belly rubs! One of Minnie’s cutest routines is jumping onto the bed, rolling over, and patiently waiting for someone to rub her tummy. She is also perfectly happy curling up quietly on her own until her person comes looking for her. Once she gets comfortable with you, Minnie is very loving and enjoys attention. She knows her name and reliably comes when called, and her love of treats should make learning new skills a fun adventure. Minnie is still learning some of the basics of being a house dog. She has used potty pads and is making progress with consistent praise and treats. She is also learning that her crate can be a cozy place to relax and has started voluntarily going inside, even sleeping there with the door open. She has not been destructive when given a little extra room. Minnie can be timid around quick hand movements and prefers to keep all four paws on the ground rather than being picked up. A patient person who lets her build trust at her own pace will get to see her affectionate personality shine. She has enjoyed having a friendly foster dog to play with and would likely appreciate a gentle canine companion who respects her space. Minnie is looking for someone who will continue her potty training, introduce her to leash walks, and give her plenty of patience, playtime, and affection.
