Housetraining –
Perfect! Very reliable.
Crate-Minion
crates easily and rests quietly all night in our room. She has a crate in
our kitchen/dining area that we use when we go to work. She crates easily there
as well as long as we are still moving around in the house. She does fuss some
when we leave. From what I observed, her anxiety is not about being in the
crate, but about being left behind. This social little girl thinks she should
go everywhere with us ;-)
Leash-Minion
loves her walks and does well on the leash. However…. I do not require my dogs
to heel, and they get a lot of freedom on the leash. She’s easy breazy and will
be happy going for a walk with you, whatever your requirements are.
Food/Eating-No
problems here. Minion is a good eater and has enjoyed all treats. She eats in
the same room at the same time as our dog, Charlie with no issues.
Socialization-Minion
has gone on several car rides, has met lots of people and has done very well.
She does NOT like the big dog from down the street however. But in her defense,
he did not make a good first impression. He’s about 80lbs and came running
toward us at about 100 mph. She had no idea that he is a big goofball and he
and Charlie love to play and wrestle. He was just looking for fun, but Minion
did not see it that way and got more than a little vocal with him. For now, I
would suggest slow introductions to BIG dogs.
Personality –Happy
and friendly. She is beginning to show more independence. She no longer feels
she needs to follow me from room to room, and has found a favorite place on the
sofa.
Coat/Size-
Minion is about 17lbs. Measures about 13 inches, floor to shoulder and is aprox
17 inches from collar to base of tail. She has a soft, low shed, long coat that
has been pretty low maintenance (so far)
Keep in mind, all of the above can change as a rescue dog gets more comfortable in their surroundings.
