Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Did you know that rescue animals tend to know they've been rescued? Meet Lupe, she's the perfect example. When Lupe first arrived at the shelter she was scared of her own shadow... too afraid to leave her kennel and absolutely no idea who to trust. Obviously the victim of some sort of mistreatment, at first we weren't even sure if it was feasible to put Lupe up for adoption. As usual, however, the dog got the benefit of the doubt, and boy are we glad she did! Lupe has made a major turnaround and it's obvious to see how grateful she is to have humans around that actually care! Although she is still a little slow to trust new faces, every day brings more affection out of this sweet girl. At this point she would make a wonderful family pet and does just fine with other animals. Looking for a lap dog who will never let you forget how much she loves you? Lupe is your girl!
