Mindy

Mindy is a 2nd chance pup who joined us in 2019! She came from a vet who took her in after her owner gave her up.

Mindy is crate/ house/leash trained and loves car rides and people. She absolutely ADORES her person, and will follow you to the ends of the earth. Her big brown eyes will melt your heart, and when you snuggle, she’ll gently tap you with her paw when you stop to say “please keep going”. She is sweeter than sweet and loves to get her belly rubbed.

She has actually gone on prior foster-to-adopts over the last few years, but it was never the right fit because this 30ish lb, 6-7 YO *does* have her quirks:

👉 She needs regular potty breaks and will urinate if super nervous, scared, *or* if she gets over-aroused and “forgets” to go outside.
👉 She can skittery on slick floors (her feet go faster than her brain lol), and she can get a little hyper.
👉 She also has VERY HIGH herding drive. For her, herding (no nipping though!) other dogs is the best thing ever!
👉 She can also be VERY barky around other dogs – her arousal meter goes WAY up and so does her voice lol.

But she has so many upsides! She has fantastic recall, is eager to please, and knows how to settle. Fine with dogs, cats and kids. 😊 No toy drive but is super food motivated and learns fast. A calmer home would be fantastic to keep her over-arousal down. She will adore you forever! 🥰
