Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Billie: 4-5 years old, black and tan spayed female, docked tail and cropped ears, 14 lbs and 11 inches tall, shots up-to-date. Her owner passed away and the family could not keep her. Surrendered to IMPS.
Meet Billie! This adorable girl is at that PERFECT Min Pin age where she is past the puppy drama stage but still energetic, playful and will keep you laughing. Billie enjoys playing with squeaky toys, chasing lizards, working on her tan, being busy, riding in the car, going for walks, meeting other respectful dogs and, oh yes, acrobatics!
Her foster mom says Billie could be the poster child for the breed (please read "Is the Miniature Pinscher the Right Dog for Me?" http://www.minpinrescue.org/#mp
A Min Pin-Savvy forever home would be preferred. Billie has “escape artist” written all over her so only secure homes/yards please. Billie is independent but will be your lap dog in no time. She is a good sleeper at night. “Treat” is Billie's favorite word. Apparently she has had a few too many in the past and is a tad overweight. She is now working on regaining her girlish figure. Billie's ideal weight should be about 11 lbs. Billie gets along fine with other dogs, especially if they are about her size.
She is working on greeting people more confidently and learning that she is not the top-dog in the household (Foster Mom is!). She would be perfect for an adult/couple who enjoys going out for a walk, is dog-savvy and is willing to continue her training. No children please.
If you think you have the love and time to devote to Billie, please contact her foster mom for more information.

Note: Billie is located in North East San Diego County, CA and we will not fly this girl.
