My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Minka is a spunky 2-year-old American Eskimo mix who was originally pulled from a shelter in Michigan. She has the temperament and personality of an American Eskimo – she just has short hair! True to her breed, Minka is wary of strangers at first and can take some time to warm up to new people. Once she's comfortable with you, Minka loves to cuddle on the couch – she's even been known to curl up on her foster mom's lap from time to time! Minka is very well-behaved in the house, fully house-trained, and is doing well in her crate training. Her favourite things in life include walks, frolicking in the snow, and playing with her blanket and towels. She also enjoys her training sessions and is very smart and food-motivated.
Minka is good with most dogs and gets along well with her current dog-sister. She has not been tested with cats, but could probably co-exist with a confident cat who is used to dogs. Minka has a bad habit of barking at strangers who get too close during walks and she needs calm and quiet introductions to new people, though this is improving over time.
