History: Hilda is a beautiful girl who needed a second chance at a good life. She quickly wriggled her way into our hearts with how sweet and loving she is and she would make a great addition to a lucky home of her own soon!
A Note from the Foster: Hi everyone, my name is Hilda and my foster mom says that makes sense because she says I am a little warrior due to all I have endured the first five years of my life. You see I am a commercial breeder survivor that entered rescue about a month ago and I have been trying so hard to be brave. New sounds scare me and I do not like meeting new people; however, I have started taking a few medications to make me more confident as well as gotten my ear infections treated and an extensive dental and I am starting to feel so much better.
I recently discovered the fun toys in my foster mom's house and my favorites include a squeaky dinosaur and a large bone (it's my foster brothers and it's waaaay better than my small one even if it's the same size as me). I am getting better at walking on a leash as long as I can walk behind my foster mom. In fact, I usually follow her around the house all the time, always behind her so its easier to keep an eye on everything. I sleep in my kennel but sometimes I don't like not being around everyone else so I will let out a few barks to let them know. My favorite thing is being near my people but with just enough distance to do my own thing because I do still do not appreciate all their attention. I also enjoy following the other dogs around in the yard, I am starting to figure out how to play with them as well and they make it easier for me to be confident. My foster mom says that as I get more and more comfortable, I may enjoy touch more but I also may never be a "cuddly lap dog." She says I show my affection in my own ways but it will be important that my new family is patient with me and allows me to love them in my own way.
If you are able to continue allowing Hilda to learn and grow her confidence on her own timeline, we look forward to hearing from you and meeting you. This warrior girl deserves her happily ever after.
