Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ADOPTION PENDING. 4 yr old black & tan male, neutered, docked tail and cropped ears. 10", 8.5 lb. Shots up-to-date. Rescued from shelter.
Spanky is a perky little black and tan boy with a soft thick coat and confident personality. At 8 lbs he is about 2 hands full and likes to position himself along the arm of a chair, watching all that's happening around him. He LOVES to lay on the window sill, and can self entertain for hours with a toy. Spanky is the quintessential minpin, a bit independent and a complete character! He is his own little man, and is especially affectionate with his people, ducking his head for a pat and rolling over to have his belly rubbed. He becomes very attached to every member of the family, showing his love with enthusiastic kisses and a little tail that wiggles his whole body. He will sleep or snuggle with anyone that lets him. If he's not tired, he'll rest at the foot of the bed watching the door. Spanky considers himself the protector of the family and can make a stranger feel unwelcome - he needs to be on leash when visitors arrive and introduced properly. He plays energetically and enthusiastically with other dogs even though most are bigger than him, but he prefers not to share food or toys and is assertive about it. His protectiveness and tendency to bolt thru an open door may not make him a match for small children. But his loving cuddly nature and generous affection will make him a great companion! Fully vetted, crate trained and house trained, a bit of a puller going for a walk on leash but we are getting a no-pull harness and he's working on it.
