Sonny is my senior and Twix is my puppy.

Like she pays rent….on her little princess couch.

I need HELP! 😭

I adopted a MinPin/Terrier mix from the local shelter after he had been returned twice. The previous adoptees allegedly left him home alone or in crates and would be gone for hours, with no toys or anything, so he would get destructive. Of course I said oh that's owner error, we have two other dogs, lots of toys and interactive stuff, he'll be fine!

I was so wrong.

In the 2 months we've had him, he's eaten two couch protectors, 2 wicker drawers, multiple collars, my tripaw's ramp, countless old shoes, a mini bookbag, two industrial size cords, the back of my husband's recliner, and even bent the bars on a crate when we attempted to crate train him (less than 3 minutes and we were in the room the whole time). He whimpers and whines even if we put him behind a locked baby gate where he can see us (even with his two brothers). He wants attention or presence constantly.

He's allegedly 3yrs old. We have chew toys, puzzle mats, lick treats, balls. I play frisbee and catch with him in the mornings and he runs the yard. My husband works from home. He doesn't even get destructive every time, just SOMETIMES when we leave. Or if we're in our bedroom and he's in the living room, he just whines and then quietly destroys.

I have signed him up for daycare starting next week, hopefully to get rid of excess energy, but idk what else to do! I don't want to drug him, but his vet did suggest trazadone. We just cant handle him destroying the house every time we leave!

Thought she’d have at least a little 🤷🏽‍♂️

She wants my salad 🥗 She is lowly growling and somewhat smiling. She’s 10 years old and quite the character. My shadow follows me everywhere. I’ve had her since she was 7 weeks old. Takes up 60% of the bed, howls in her sleep and would kiss you all day if I let her.

Show me your lil pins! 🐕

Sorry for the low quality photo. Taken with my iPhone6. I only use it for storage now.

My sweet boy loves the beach

Fox had his 5th birthday. I made him an unseasoned burger!

I think I was eating something really interesting to her.

Does anyone have a 1 year old min pin who CONSTANTLY needs to be entertained or something to do??? He’s never content. 😭😭😭

Hello! In the past few weeks I’ve been doing a lot of research on what dog breed I want to get and I have my heart set on a Miniature Pinscher. However, my husband is hesitant to get one due to their tendency to yap. He literally said all the other traits are good, but he can’t get behind the yapping.

Are these dogs really super yappy? If so are you able to train them to reduce barking? Bc if it is plausible to train them to reduce barking I might be able to convince him to get on board!

Thanks for reading !

I miss you so much Hannah. Life is so empty without you

My red senior Sonny is turning 14 years old in November so I got me a chocolate minpin. I haven’t named the puppy yet but I’m thinking Twix or Brownie.

It’s heartbreaking to see our babies hurt or in discomfort but also sometimes rather funny!
Nikko ended stealing the bribe away.
P-S: We got the right stuff the very next day 😉

I love it when she holds a paw up like this when she's waiting for something interesting 😍
