✨ Minty: Sweet Soul, Full of Love
Sometimes the brightest hearts come in the smallest packages — and Minty proves it. This 7-year-old mini poodle mix, transferred from Chicago Animal Control as a stray, has faced more than his share of challenges: blind and with dry eye disease in one eye (managed with lifelong medication), he’s still the epitome of trust, sweetness, and resilience.
Recently, Minty had an incredible grooming glow-up, and he’s looking better — and feeling better — than ever. Despite his visual limitations, he navigates the world with confidence and curiosity, always eager to meet new friends and share gentle snuggles.
Minty is searching for a patient, loving home that will appreciate his calm, trusting nature, keep up with his medical needs, and reward him with endless cuddles and quiet companionship. He may need a little extra guidance, but the love he gives in return is immeasurable.
Bring Minty home, and you’ll find a loyal, affectionate companion whose heart is as sparkling as his new look.
Dog Day Out Review:
"Minty is truly as sweet as can be. He was great in the car, and just stayed in his little car seat bed and didn’t make a peep. He got a bath prior and loved to roll around in the blanket that I brought for him. It was so cute!
He loves to be held! He is extremely calm, and fell asleep a few times in the sun during our time together. Whether it was in my lap, in the grass or in his bed, I don’t think he really cared where he was, he just loved to relax in the sun! Super easy going. Despite his vision impairment he loved to be outside. He was good on leash too, didn’t pull and was easy to redirect when he was going in circles :) Such a gentle soul!"
Sleepover review: "Has not made a single peep (no barking or crying), he is super quiet!
Slept the entire night in his gated area
He is obsessed with blankets. All he wants to do is snuggle up and bury himself into a ton of blankets. The key to Minty’s heart = blankets!
He doesn’t really go on “walks” moreso just enrichment sniffing outside. He will bump into things so just be cautious on that of course!
Fully potty trained !!!!
Despite him being blind, he’s really easy going :) and also easy to take care of
He’s special in his own way. He’s kind of more like a cat lol but in the best way possible."
