My story

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

This precious girl is Zelda, picked up as a stray by one of our officers and brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 3/10. My Dog Scanner app suggests she has Beauceron in her breed mix. She is about 2 years old and weighs 48 pounds. Zelda is scared and uneasy in the shelter. She is very submissive and will come to you for comfort. This shy girl needs reassurance and to build trust and confidence. She wants so much to please and will stay close to a human friend. She has a sweet gentleness about her. Zelda is overtly affectionate and seems starved for attention. She walks ok on a leash but when she walks past dogs that are barking at her, she is intimidated. We will continue to spend time with her helping her to feel more comfortable and cared for and she will undoubtedly warm up. Zelda deserves another chance at finding a home in which she will be loved and a person or family who will stay committed to her.
