Katie’s previous owner could no longer physically care for her any longer and that is when Picasso’s Place stepped into help. Katie is a super sweet and affectionate little girl. At 10 years young, Katie is unaware of her age. She can easily keep up with a 2-mile walk and has no problem chasing squirrels in her fenced-in yard in her foster home. Katie would prefer a home without cats as she doesn't quite understand that it is not appropriate to chase the cats. She loves undivided attention and is really hoping for someone that would spend time with her and allow her to cuddle and snuggle with them — perhaps someone that is retired and looking for a lap companion. A home without small children would be best.
Katie 10 years old and is spayed, current on vaccines, heart worm prevention and flea/tick prevention and will have her teeth professionally cleaned prior to being adopted

Rescue Group Info...
Rescued from a dog farm in South Korea in late 2004, Picasso, a red miniature pinscher, truly defines what it means to be a survivor. Thanks to a wonderful rescuer that brought him from South Korea to the U.S., Picasso found his way to his forever home where he made such an impact on his family, that this organization was created to honor him and help min pins in need.
The mission of Picasso’s Place Min Pin Rescue, Inc. is to facilitate the rescue and adoption of stray, abandoned, neglected, abused, and surrendered miniature pinschers and place them into permanent and loving homes.
In the interim, we provide appropriate foster and veterinary care, proper nourishment and of course, plenty of love and attention.
Picasso’s Min Pin Rescue, Inc. services the mid-Atlantic and other states when needed. The availability of financial and volunteer resources will determine how many miniature pinschers and how extended a geographical area can be serviced at any given time. Picasso’s Place Min Pin Rescue’s goal is to provide quality care and placement assistance to as many homeless miniature pinschers possible.
Qualified adoptive families are selected through an application process that is focused on the welfare of the miniature pinscher and the need to place each dog in an environment appropriate for that dog's background, temperament and needs. The needs of the homeless miniature pinschers are the rescue’s primary concern. Obtaining safe, loving, lifelong homes for miniature pinschers is our primary goal.

Step 5: Placement of min pin in home if above steps are met with approval
Every min pin is profiled. We do our best to determine their suitability with cats, other pets and children. They are given flea/tick prevention and a complete medical exam.
Prior to placement, they are spayed/neutered, microchipped and vaccines are updated. All are tested for heartworm and are dewormed. Adopting a min pin is truly a rewarding experience. Your min pin will quickly become a member of the family and add joy to your home. Their playful and sensitive natures will endear them to everyone.
