Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Poor Ava was abandoned when her owners moved. Up until then she had lived her whole life as an inside dog and then was thrown outside like yesterday's garbage to fend for herself. The neighbor contacted animal control to come get her but she was so scared that she wouldn’t let anyone get close. Since there was no way to confine her, a humane trap was set up and within a few minutes Ava went right in on her own. As soon as the trap was opened, she jumped right into the arms of her rescuer and has only wanted to he held and loved since. Even when she was scared Ava never growled, she just ran. Now she has no intentions of going anywhere but into a nice comfy lap. Ava is good with other animals and is housebroken. This little girl is only 10 pounds and 2 years old.
