Story
HIGHLIGHT: ** Requires a secure yard and another confident dog already established in the home. ** Meet Belinda - quiet, observant and learning to trust. Belinda is so special and unassuming. She is a 15-pound, 4-year-old Maltipoo mix who is still very early in her journey towards feeling safe in a human world. She absolutely ADORES other friendly dogs. She's very easy: she just wants to quietly observe everything from her safe space (the couch or her playpen area). To help her continue to thrive, Belinda's new home MUST have at least one established dog that she can trust and take cues from. Let’s be honest, she wouldn’t mind a house with more dogs than humans! Belinda will do best in a calm, experienced household where she can take her time and be allowed to observe first, and settle in at her own pace. Though she's not ready to consistently approach people just yet, she watches closely - and those watchful eyes are full of curiosity. She takes cues from other resident dogs and deep down you can tell she wants to join in on the fun. Once she overcomes her shyness you will start to see little bits of her silly personality. She is very soft and does not shed. At this stage, Belinda is learning that people bring good things, like cuddly spaces, boiled chicken treats and predictable routines. She's also been making progress with house training and gentle handling. Although she remains very cautious, there's incredible potential for continued progress in the right environment. While she's not ready for a lot of physical affection yet, she is ready for a family that understands trust takes time and will be there patiently cheering her on with every small step forward. She's shown great progress in the short time since being rescued, and we're confident the right family is out there for sweet Belinda. Watching a timid dog come out of their shell and learn that you are their family is pretty special. Apply today to learn more about brave Belinda!
