Patch Pets: Meet Minnie

This friendly girl has had a hard time finding a home. Can you help?

Minnie is a friendly 7-year-old Pit/Bulldog mix who first arrived at the shelter in March.

She had lost her home of 6-plus years because her family was moving and could not bring her along. She lived with kids in her past home and was great with them. Minnie also is friendly toward cats but we feel she would do best as the solo dog in the home. She was an indoor dog who was not crated in her prior home and was reportedly well-behaved in their house. She also walks pretty well on leash.

Minnie was adopted a few months ago but recently surrendered at another shelter and then transferred back to the ARL. There was no specific reason given for the surrender but those owners did describe her as a "loving, wonderful dog" and had no behavior issues with her. They indicated she was house-trained and knows a number of commands. She enjoys chasing balls and Frisbees.

Minnie has so much to offer and hopefully it won't be long before she finds her forever home. If you're looking for a more settled dog who won't require a high level of training or exercise as younger dogs do, stop by and meet her. For inquiries about Minnie, contact her volunteer friend Sue at adoptadog.pgh@gmail.com. Minnie's adoption fee is $115.
