Meet Minnie! A Resilient, Playful, and Sweet 5-Month-Old Cutie!
Don't let Minnies rough start fool you—this 5-month-old sweetie is a confident, happy, and active puppy who doesnt let anything slow her down! Minnie came into rescue after a difficult past. While she does have a mild vision impairment, she can actually see pretty well and navigates her world beautifully.
Minnie is an incredibly smart, fast learner who maps out her surroundings in record time. She is a normal, fun-loving puppy who is looking for a family that wants to truly include her in things and spend lots of time with her. She is ready to bond deeply with her family, and once she knows where her safe place is, she is going to be the absolute perfect companion!
When she first goes to her new home, she will likely be a little timid for the first couple of days, but once she learns that everyone is safe, she comes out of her shell in no time!
Minnies Social Resume:
* Dog Friendly: Minnie absolutely loves playing with other dogs. She currently has dog friends ranging from 7 pounds all the way up to 75 pounds and does great with them all! A home with a friendly dog or two would be great for her to help burn off her puppy energy, but she'd also do fine as an only dog as long as she gets plenty of play.
* Cat Approved: She is incredibly gentle and good with cats. She doesn't bark at them or chase them, so she will fit right into a home with feline friends!
* Kid Potential: Minnie hasn't lived with children yet, but with proper introductions, she would likely do great with a gentle kid once she learns they are her friend.
Minnies All-Star Manners:
* House Training: She is already a superstar with her potty training and keeps her space perfectly clean, as long as she is let out on a reasonable schedule!
* Smart & Eager to Learn: She is a very fast learner and is already doing great learning both "sit" and "come."
* Flexible Sleeper: She has experience sleeping right in bed with humans, dogs, and cats, but she also does great in her crate. She settles right down and can adapt perfectly to whichever setup her new family prefers!

Minnie has overcome a rough start and is ready to find her ultimate forever family. If you are looking for a sweet, wiggly companion who gets along with everyone, Minnie is your girl!
