Meet Pandie who is a 5 year old fun loving Shih/Poo, who for the most part does everything she can to please you. She is a fast learner but is sometimes fearful. She is house trained, but until she feels comfortable in a new home and trusts the people she is with, she may have a few accidents in the house. Pandie is not a real confident dog and definitely needs a family who understanding of insecure dogs and will encourage her to overcome her fears of new people, new situations and experiences so that she, and her family, can have a happy life. Now that she knows and loves her foster mom, she enjoys having her belly rubbed, does zoomies in the backyard, and chows her food down like it’s her last meal. Pandie is currently sleeping at night in a dog bed in the bedroom of her foster mom and does well with that. These are the requirements for Pandie’s new family: 1. A home that has a fenced back yard so that she can run freely, while being supervised. 2. Someone who will be home much of the day. 3. A family who will be patient and help her develop confidence. They must understand that this which will take time, consistency, and a general avoidance of activity which will create stressors for her. 4. Because Pandie is a bit fearful, she should be adopted by an adults only family where there is little activity with strangers coming in and out of the home. Children over the age of ten will be considered if they have had experience with a small dog and know to gently interact with a fearful dog. 5. Live within a 25 mile radius of Edina, MN. Pandie is spayed, current on vaccinations, microchipped and on heartworm and flea/tick preventative care. Her adoption fee is $320.00 plus $27.28 in sales tax for a total of $347.28.
