Minty's big dream is to one day become a professional opera singer, and she's passionate about sticking to her practice regimen. While this doesn't make her a great match as an apartment dog, she is a lover of all people, and will eagerly push her way onto whatever available lap she can reach. Minty loves running around and playing with her people! Once in a home and able to decompress, an enthusiasm for toys may develop especially with the guidance of her people. There's never a day where she's not up and ready to head out in the morning, greeting the sun with a grin and a go-getter attitude.
Ideal Home
Minty would do best in a home where she can practice her singing to her heart's content without disturbing neighbors. She is comfortable around other dogs but is more interested in people. She could possibly be a good fit for a family with kids, but interactions should always be monitored.
Ongoing Health
Minty arrived with some mild skin issues, early cataracts, and some mammary masses that are currently being looked into. She will need someone that has an established relationship with a vet to ensure she continues to get the care she needs to be happy and healthy. She will also need routine appointments with a professional groomer every 4-6 weeks to ensure she remains comfortable and matt-free.
Training & Support
Someone that has some experience with or doesn't mind a barky dog would be her best fit. Experience with positive reinforcement or willingness to learn will help Minty blossom and build confidence. She will do best learning with someone who can offer patience while she adjusts. Positive reinforcement will help Minty not only learn new skills and fun tricks, but also help her to bond with her new owner as well. A combination of regular exercise, combined with mental enrichment such as food puzzles, scent games, and learning new tricks will help fully meet her needs.
