Brooke and her sister were found underweight, fending for themselves, and sheltering in the root of a tree by the river. They were both very nervous about being brought into the shelter, but once they arrived they were both ready for cuddles, and most importantly, food. Brooke is around 9 months old and around 38 pounds. Brooke is a sweet and loving girl who is a little shy, and not quite so confident as her sister, Pebble. She is ready to curl up in your lap for some love whenever she can get attention. She’s building confidence with treat training and love from the volunteers. She knows the sit command, and she is doing well with leash training, especially on a harness. She’s an intelligent girl who is eager to please. Brooke is ready to find her perfect, reassuring family to help her continue to build confidence by giving her the love and attention she needs.
