My story

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

From Foster Parent:
Little Dessa is settling in and we are gently acclimating our dogs to her. She is learning to use puppy pads and doing well.

On 8/3/24 I visited Dessa in her kennel. She was timid, cowering at the back. She showed some interest in treats and does allow for petting. Pet would do best in a foster home to help with fear/socialization.

On 8/7/24 I visited Dess at her kennel. She was timid, but took treats well. She was interested in pets. Initially she was timid/hesitant, but she allowed for petting and eventually loosened up. Removed blue dots from kennel cards
