About Minnie
Minnie is a playful, intelligent, and affectionate dachshund who is ready to steal your heart
(and maybe your lap). She's a cuddle enthusiast, a tennis ball chaser, and a curious explorer
all rolled into one adorable sausage dog.
Currently in foster care with two older dachshund siblings, Minnie has shown fantastic
progress. However, she sometimes feels like the third wheel — which is why we think she’d
truly shine in a home with just one other dachshund or calm canine companion to bond
with.
She’s not keen on being left alone for long stretches but is improving every day — and she
definitely makes up for it with the joy and excitement she shows when her humans return!
If you're looking for a loving, loyal, and playful dachshund companion, Minnie might just be
your perfect match. With the right home, she’s ready to blossom into the confident,
affectionate girl she’s meant to be.
