My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, my name is Dove. I am a shy girl that would love to have a chance to warm up to you! I was rescued from a hoarding situation over 2 YEARS AGO where I was not allowed to socialize with other humans. I have been in the shelter or foster care ever since and I would really love a home to call my own. Once I warm up to you, I am the most loving and happiest furbaby around! My rescue mom says you can receive help from her to transition into your home!

I prefer to be around people that know and respect my boundaries and are willing to take their time to let me warm up to you. I will hide to feel safe. While I may be shy with new humans, my rescue mom used me as a peer model to introduce new dogs to our rescue when I was there! Yep, I am cool as a cucumber with new dogs and respect their space but still love to play! My rescue mom (woofwoof fosters) works with a dog trainer and has already had me evaluated!

Dove is currently in a foster home with a number of other dogs (big and small) as well as a cat and has done wonderful with them. She warmed up to her new human foster family even quicker than we could have anticipated! This girl is so resilient! She loves to snuggle in bed after trust is established and use pillows like a human! Please remember the 3,3,3 rule (3 days to decompress, 3 weeks to learn the routine, and 3 months to feel at home).
