Minerva - Husky and Pit Bull Terrier Dog for Adoption in Youngsville, North Carolina

(DOB: 9/9/26) Due to Minerva's young age, she has not been spayed yet. For this reason, we are only considering local placement (within a 1-hour drive time of Wake Forest NC).

Say hello to Minerva! This sweet girl seems to wake up every day believing it's going to be a great one, and her constantly wagging tail makes sure everyone knows it! She's a curious little explorer who loves puppy playtime, romping with her littermates, and checking out everything this big, exciting world has to offer. Of course, all that excitement calls for plenty of well-earned puppy naps!

Minerva is ready to find a family who will help her make the most of her puppy years. Growing up takes guidance, so she'll need positive reinforcement training, consistent boundaries, lots of attention, and plenty of opportunities to experience new people, places, and things. Potty training, crate training, and learning basic manners are all part of her journey, making a home with someone present the majority of the day a must.

A fun-loving, puppy-friendly canine companion is a requirement! Minerva needs a furry big brother or sister who enjoys playing and can help show her the ropes. A good canine role model can make learning doggy manners and navigating her new world even more fun. A securely fenced yard is also important for safe zoomies and outdoor adventures. Cats may be part of the picture, too, as puppies often adapt well when introduced at a young age.

With patience, consistency, positive guidance, and plenty of socialization, Minerva is sure to grow into a wonderful companion. If you're ready for puppy kisses, endless tail wags, and a little extra happiness in your home, this sweet girl may be just the one!

As part of Minerva's $325 adoption fee, she will be spayed, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on her monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives. In addition to the adoption fee, a $100 spay/neuter deposit and puppy spay/neuter agreement will also be required. The deposit will be returned once the puppy is altered.
