If yes, what's the youngest child you'd recommend they be placed with? Over 8. She’s still got a lot of puppy in her and needs to be taught manners. Recommend kids who have the ability to correct her.

Special traits that make your foster special or that we need to know about them?

Minnie likes to steal other dogs toys from their mouth and then chew it right in front of them - that’s the extent of how she plays. She’s just a puppy who has had a rough start and needs a family who is willing to teach her from the ground up. This includes staying off the table if it’s accessible. She’s has the potential to be an amazing pet.

Fosters Location: Pike Creek, DE
