My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

**Think this dog might be for you? The first step is to complete an application: http://www.mominpinrescue.org/p/adoption-application_30.html

We do not arrange transport for our dogs. If your application is approved, you will be required to come to us to pick up your dog.**

Diego was surrendered to our rescue when his human died and the family took him to a rural outdoor shelter in Oklahoma. He is a little on the chubby side and could stand to lose 3-4 pounds. He is a bigger-than-average Min Pin, weighing about 23 pounds. He is 4 years old. He has a docked (very short) tail and natural ears.

Diego can be a little standoffish toward new people, but hand him a treat (low calorie) and he'll warm right up. Since he has been with us, he has not been exposed to cats or kids. Diego would make a very good watchdog - probably not a great apartment dog, though, because he does like to hear himself talk.

Fully vetted, neutered, and microchipped. Diego is located in St. Louis. His adoption fee is $260.
