Mini

My story

Meet Mini, a diamond in the ruff.If you believe in second chances, patient hearts, and the joy of watching a shy soul blossom—then you just might be the person Mini’s been waiting for.Mini is a beautiful, sensitive girl who is still learning what it means to feel safe and loved. She came to us with no training and a heart full of uncertainty—but day by day, with gentle encouragement and positive reinforcement, she’s showing us just how bright her light can shine.Though Mini is fearful around new people and needs time to warm up, once you’ve earned her trust, she becomes your most affectionate, loyal shadow. She doesn’t understand personal space—because to her, love means slobbery kisses and full-body cuddles. 💕Mini is a work in progress, and she needs a home that will continue her training with kindness, structure, and lots of yummy treats (her favorite!). She’s incredibly food motivated and smart as a whip—she’s already mastered “sit,” “lay down,” and is proudly learning fun agility-style tricks like jumping, balancing on targets, and even weaving between legs!She absolutely loves to learn—it’s how she connects and builds confidence. Her ideal home will be patient and understanding, helping her grow at her own pace while celebrating each little win along the way.Right now other dogs can still make her nervous so she’ll need slow introductions and understanding when it comes to new furry friends.Mini may not be the kind of dog who runs up to strangers with tail wags and kisses right away—but if you give her the gift of time and compassion, you’ll get to see her beautiful heart unfold. And once it does? You’ll wonder how you ever lived without her.Please apply to adopt at: http://www.pawsgh.org
