Minnie's Profile

Hi, I’m Minnie!

From my foster volunteer: “Mini is the sweetest, calmest, most friendly girl you’ll ever meet. She loves every person and every dog she meets. She greets everybody with bum wiggling tail wags. She is great with kids and would be a perfect family dog. She would also be a perfect second “fur” sibling. She has great house manners and can be trusted when left alone at home. She loves long sniffing walks, snuggling on the couch, head and belly rubs, and sleeping in on the weekends. After one meeting, you will fall in love with this beautiful girl.”

The staff at the OHS call me a Performer! Performers love being at the centre of attention and are usually excited to meet all types of people, often introducing themselves! Performers need a high amount of exercise daily, and would love a daily hike, jog, bike ride, or long session of fetch every day. To work their minds, Performers usually love the excitement of food puzzles, frozen treats, training games, and hide-and-seek!

Performers need to be integrated into the family and are usually pretty fun to take out and about for family activities – they love being where the action is! After a good day of socializing and exercising, you’ll usually find Performers flopped down next to you to enjoy some quality sleep time. If you’re looking for an active, social companion, then you’ll have lots of fun with a Performer!

I am looking for a home with no cats or small animals.

I have degenerative joint disease (DJD) and hip dysplasia!

In the past I have had issues with my anal glands, they are stable at this time. This issue should be monitored by a veterinarian.

I am currently relaxing in a foster home as I wait for my forever family. Please contact an adoptions staff to book an appointment to meet me!

If you are interested in setting up an appointment to adopt me, please complete an adoption application at https://ottawahumane.ca/adopt/adoption-application/. Please be advised that although we do offer on-the-spot-adoptions, this is dependent on appointment schedules and cannot be guaranteed.
