Mama Minnow

My story

If you know a sweeter dog, let minnow! Hey guys! My name is Minnow and I am a small fry in this big ocean. I am a 5 year old spayed female Hound mix weighing about 88 lbs. I was rescued from San Diego, but the Texas one, and my puppies have found their amazing homes and it's time for this mama fishie. I am house trained, bathroom trained, crate trained, no separation anxiety, good on leash. I can get reactive with dogs on the leash but I am getting so much better with positive reinforcement training. I can practically walk past them without lunging now, and with positive interrupters, I can even sit around dogs at a restaurant! I came to my foster mama as an unsure, clumsy girl and have turned into an incredibly cuddly, playful and still clumsy lady. I have a great temperament and a bunch of happy energy. I love long walks, hikes and after all that, love to chill out on the couch. I do have a calm energy about me. I truly love every person I meet, getting along swimmingly well, and I know I will be the best companion, and even a workout buddy. I just go a bit nutty when near other dogs, so being an only pet would be ideal. I am very selective, so with another dog, I have to have a proper temperament test. I haven't met kitties yet, but I am good around kids! My mama vouches that I am the most fintastic dog ever. Loving everyone I meet and is the best adventure buddy. I have a calm about me and it could be because of being a mama, but my goofster self is still around. I need a strong handler as I am a big and strong gal, and need an active person. But after tuckering out, get ready for divine cuddles. I will need a full temp test if I have to be around a dog, but walks are fine now with positive reinforcement and interrupters.
