Minnie's Story
Current Location: King Willliam, VA<br/><br/>Meet Minnie<br/><br/>Minnie is a one year old, 15 pound Terrier mix who is still unfolding, and what is emerging with every passing day is something genuinely sweet and worth waiting for.<br/><br/>She is loving and affectionate with the people she trusts and has a playful side that comes out beautifully around other dogs and with toys when she feels comfortable and safe. She is still finding her footing in the wider world though, and she is honest about it in the most endearing way. New people, and particularly new men, can cause her to hang back and observe from a safe distance rather than rushing in. She is not aggressive in the slightest, just careful, watching quietly and making sure things feel right before she decides to engage. She is the kind of girl who needs to write her own timeline and she deserves a home that respects that.<br/><br/>She is a work in progress with house training and is getting better every day with patience and consistency. She is not a fan of going into her crate but once she is settled in she does just fine, which tells you that her hesitations are mostly about the unknown and that once something becomes familiar she handles it with grace.<br/><br/>Minnie needs a calm and patient adopter who understands that some of the best things take a little time. She is not the finished product yet. She is the in between, the becoming, the slow and steady reveal of a dog who is going to be absolutely wonderful when she fully arrives. The person who gives her that space is going to feel very lucky indeed.
