Shortcake was abandoned in our shelter parking lot, and understandably, she was nervous and standoffish when she first arrived. Her initial behavior made her difficult to handle; much of her fear seemed to stem from the loud kennel environment and her anxiety about being leashed. However, thanks to the patience and love of our dedicated staff and volunteers, she’s making incredible progress! Her interaction with new people makes her difficult to handle in a shelter environment. When she interacts with people she knows, Shortcake seeks affection, enjoys getting pets, and will even roll over for belly rubs. We believe she may be house-trained, and she came to us already spayed. Shortcake is looking for a loving home where she can continue to build her confidence and show her true loving self.
