Featured Trailhead Puppy
Every month we will choose a family and their Trailhead
puppy and let you know what they have been up to. Enjoy!
Domina
Trailhead’s Domina (Mina, for short) was born September 25, 2010 out of Trailhead’s
Bali and CH Giacomo of Bajer litter. Initially deemed “Purple Puppy” by
Katherine, she proved to be friendly and outgoing… exactly what we
were  looking for.  We chose a latin name; Domina, meaning ‘lady’, in keeping with
her Roman roots.

Mina came to live with us in southern New Jersey just around
Thanksgiving 2010 and has been stealing everyone’s hearts ever since. Dennis has
had large breed dogs in the past, but this is my first dog ever! Mina has been an
excellent introduction to the dog world. She is a quick-learner, eager  to please and
very  affectionate.

Her temperament is outstanding. She’s gentle with children and loves my
Grandmother, but still protects the yard, alerts us of wary strangers and
stands her ground with other dogs. Although petite for her age, she “polices” the
behavior of all the dogs at the park and is the first to break up any squabbles. She is
always looking out for the smaller dogs.

She loves to jog with me, wrestles with Dennis and has boundless energy. Her
favorite summer activity is anything in the pool, river or lake! At the end of a busy
day, Mina looks forward to a peanut butter treat and curling up on her pillow. She’s
a great Cane Corso!
