20 April 2013 update: MinPin is on trial adoption
MinPin was found on a busy road and is being put up for adoption since no one claimed her. She's now believed to be abandoned due to her cataract.
Due to her early cataract which is probably genetically inherited, she can only see shadows from her right eye although she has good vision from her left eye. This would caused her to panic and start protecting herself by snapping if there's any sudden movement. However, when she knows you, get used to your voice, she will be as adorable as a kitten. In addition, due to her cataract problem and her not being well socialized, she will start barking whenever there's dogs or cats near her so she may not be suitable to multi-pet homes or has to be monitored when around other pets.
As she was likely abandoned by her owner and probably had to fight for food while on the streets, she is still protective over her food while she's eating, so it's best not to disturb her when there's food in front of her.
Behavior:
- She's toilet trained, will only pee and poo outside the house.
- She can walk off leash, she will follow the clapping sound when you want her to follow.
- healthy and fit, loves to be with humans.
- Her personality and attitude is more suitable for a family that do not have other pets but the adopting family has to be patient when dealing with MinPin and she will eventually listen and be an extreme cute girl when she gets to know you better.
The adopter should be active on Facebook so that we can get pictorial updates on the dog and forgo the need for physical visits to check on her.
By the way, MinPin was featured in Star newspaper on 16 February 2013 under the Dog Talk column. Thank you, Ellen Whyte!
If you're interested to adopt her, please sent a message (via petfinder.my) and tell me about yourself especially your dog ownership experience and do expect an interview.
I think MiniPin would be a great addition to our house.
Is she still available? Reason we love pinscher, because they extremely hyper & a good evening walk companion. Knowing that this breed is a little barking amplifyer, we are well prepared.
