Minnie

ABOUT MINNIE<br/>Need a goofy companion? Meet the magnificent Minnie! She is a 4-year-old shepherd/lab mix that loves to play. Minnie came to HAP from a high-intake shelter in Louisiana when they no longer had space for her. During her first few days, she was her sweet, loving self but quickly became overwhelmed by the shelter environment, often pacing in her kennel. We reached out to our volunteers to see if someone would be willing to give her a break from shelter stress. Minnie has since been very active in our Doggy Day Out program, which gives her the opportunity to decompress and explore the world outside of the shelter. Minnie has even enjoyed a sleepover in an employee's home. Not only did she appear house-trained, with no accidents in the home, but also slept soundly in her crate overnight! She quickly showed off her goofy, playful side. Whether it's a game of tug with you or entertaining herself, she is always up for some fun! Minnie loves to chew on hard bones and rubber balls. She is a fast learner and knows basic commands. Since she is food and toy motivated, the possibilities are endless with her! Here's what a few of our Doggy Day Out volunteers had to say about her: <br/><br/>"I had such a great day with Minnie! She's such a happy, fun and intelligent dog!<br/>Minnie had so much fun walking around Rittenhouse Park with me and my mom.<br/>She really loves sniffing and exploring. Minnie walks great on the leash and is very smart. When I opened the front door of the car, she hopped in the front and got straight to the backseat, knowing where she's supposed to sit. Minnie was very well behaved in the house. She sits and gives paw for treats, which she takes very gently. Minnie absolutely had a great time in the house. She played with sooo many toys, and enjoyed playing fetch. Though Minnie has a ton of energy, she also enjoys sitting for belly rubs and giving kisses. Minnie really is a special dog!" - Zoe<br/><br/>"Took our girl Minnie out today and she was the ultimate cuddle buddy. We camped out under a tree, watched some senior softball, and I even got some work done. She was a total rockstar with all the people walking by. I love hanging with her." - Taylor <br/><br/>*Minnie is seeking a home as your only pet! She can be selective with dogs and has made some doggy friends, but in a home environment, she would prefer to be your one and only! <br/><br/>If you're interested in Minnie, you are welcome to submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is first-come, best-match basis. We are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in a specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match!
