Minnie was very shy at first in her new foster mom's home. However, she has warmed up quickly and is now very outgoing in familiar places! She still needs encouragement and a lot of reinforcement in new places on the leash. However, with training and socialization to new places she will do great! She has met several neighborhood dogs, many new people, and even horses, becoming quick friends with everyone she meets. Minnie also has a lot of energy and loves to play with foster mom's permanent dog (see video). She will do best in an active home, with or without other dogs. She is very smart, picking up new things quickly. She has made excellent progress on potty training, leash training, and has learned to use the doggie door. Minnie will be a loyal companion to whoever is lucky enough to scoop up this cuddley, playful girl.
