MINNOW

 

Female | 2 years old | 25 pounds | Medium-high energy | Has met kids & dogs | No cats | From Hamilton | Fostered in Toronto | Playful, Shy, Happy

Meet MINNOW! She is one sweet (and opinionated) lady. MINNOW would thrive in a home willing to give her time and patience to earn her trust. Once you're in her inner circle (which she will admit, might take a few days), MINNOW will reward you with unlimited cuddles and a constantly wagging tail.

MINNOW enjoys a few hot girl walks a day, so she would be best suited to an active family who also loves getting outside. A securely fenced yard where she can roam, run and sniff freely would also be a wonderful bonus. MINNOW prefers her walks in the morning to help her settle throughout the day and keep any boredom-induced mischief at bay. MINNOW is a true people pleaser and will stick by your side through thick and thin once she's comfortable.

A few things you should know about this scruff: MINNOW prefers a confined area over a crate and will be quite outspoken about this! Fortunately, she can be trusted to have no accidents in the home. When meeting new humans or dogs, MINNOW also prefers a slow, low-pressure introduction. She likes to take the lead very cautiously when it comes to meeting new people or playing with new dogs. That being said, with thoughtful introductions, she would love a dog sibling (or an older human sibling!) to hang out and play with every day. Lastly, bathtime isn’t her favourite, so she will need help getting accustomed to maintaining her hygiene with lots of positive reinforcement (and a few treats, of course).

MINNOW is a shy lady, but with a bit of patience and reassurance, she is taking on new experiences like a rockstar! She loves car rides, hanging out with her foster family, endless sniffaris and watching the world go by! If you are willing to let MINNOW move at her own pace, she’ll repay your patience with loyalty and love.
