More: Minnie is a very curious and intelligent dog. She’s participated in Yale’s Canine Cognition Center studies. She worked her way up and now holds a doctorate.😊 Minnie enjoys lure coursing, along with chasing squirrels and chipmunks. She’s not just a pretty face. She’s a rescue who I adopted when she was a year old, but she doesn’t like me to tell people that. She likes the attention but not the sympathy.
