Story
I got Mingo when she was 1 and she is roughly 4 years old. She is one of the most loyal dogs I’ve ever known. She is pitbull/whippit mix. She has the personality of a human and a very fun to be around. My schedule requires me to be away from home for most of the day and sometimes several days in a row and I don’t get to spend much time with her. It breaks my heart that she hasn’t gotten the attention that she needs for the past year. Mingo is very protective when new people(especially men)come into the house. She is scared of eye contact with new people so when I have her meet a new person I just tell the person to not pay attention to her for 5 minutes and then she will love you. She’s perfectly fine around smaller dogs but she didn’t get along with my parents female blue heeler. I’m willing to give her to the right person for free but I require the adopter to send me a video of her every 2 weeks for the next 6 months after she’s adopted. I want to make sure she’s in a loving home.

Story
I’m Minnie, a precious, adorable little whippet mix!I was an emaciated girl in need of TLC when I came to the Humane Society of York County from Chester County Animal Control. I’ve spent time with two wonderful foster families who helped me get ready to find my forever home. I’m a petite girl, about 15 pounds, and my estimated birth date is April 2025.I’m a very affectionate girl! I’ve loved hanging out with other doggies in foster care, and did well with kids (and a baby!). I’m a spunky young girl and I love to play with toys and run in the yard. I’m also told that I have the softest fur!I’m a sweet young girl and can’t wait to find a forever family who’s looking for a small love bug!If you wish to meet me, please call the Humane Society of York County at (803)-802-0902 to schedule an appointment.Please refer to our website for adoption requirements: https://humanesocietyofyorkcounty.org/adopt/adoption-process.htmlThank you for your support.
