Minnie

Unknown · Puppy · 4 months

Minnie is a delightful mini-JRT cross. She is loyal and loving and has spent time in the company of older children. She has been an only dog in the house, so we suggest she continues this way.Minnie was wary of new people, having led a sheltered life with her owner, but came to us with time and encouragement. Her owner’s health has led to the sad but brave decision to try to find her a new home. She would like a home where she can have access to a garden and regular walks. She is crate trained, but really does not like it, so we would prefer she has the freedom and safety to sleep in a dog bed.Minnie is loved and well cared for. She has only just turned two years old, so hadn’t been considered for spaying, but Team Poundie can support that with the new family Minnie would benefit from on-going socialisation and training, and she is a bright little thing who would enjoy that. She would love to get out and about, meet the world of people and dogs – she will just need to have her confidence built – she is still a puppy after all. She has been defensive when feeling threatened by people she does not know, but we met her with no problem at all. She is a typical JRT! Minnie would love a home where she has access to a garden, good company and regular walks. So we are looking for:Freedom within the home to rest and sleep where she wantsA small to medium sized gardenRegular walksAn owner who provide company and on-going training and socialisationA home with no young childrenNo other petsMinnie is the sweetest thing – with a JRT personality! If you think you can offer her a home, please do apply. Privacy Policy

About Minnie

What life with Minnie looks like

Minnie is a small puppy/kitten dog waiting at Team Poundie in United Kingdom.

Puppies need routine, gentle socialization, and roughly two short outings a day for the first year. The first six months are the formative window — house-training, leash work, and quiet exposure to traffic, other dogs, and unfamiliar people happen now or not at all. Expect early-morning wake-ups and a few months of chewing.

🇬🇧Adopting from United Kingdom

UK shelters work under the Pet Travel Scheme (post-Brexit, the EU pet passport is not valid; a UK Animal Health Certificate is required for travel into the EU). Most UK rescues focus on domestic placements but some work with EU partners.

Frequently asked

Adopting Minnie, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Minnie?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Team Poundie handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Minnie on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Minnie if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Team Poundie will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. UK adopters: post-Brexit travel into the EU requires an Animal Health Certificate. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Minnie already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Minnie isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Team Poundie early rather than rehoming privately; they know Minnie and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (EN). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
