My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Beauty — a gentle spirit who is finally learning what kindness feels like.
Beauty is a 2-year-old mixed breed dog who came to us from a horrific neglect case in the Richland Center area. She had been living outside in filth and trash with numerous other dogs, receiving little to no human interaction. When she first arrived, Beauty was terrified — plastered against the back wall of her kennel, trembling and unable to walk on a leash or accept touch. Her fear was heartbreaking, and it told the story of everything she’d endured.
But Beauty is more than her past.
With time, patience, and consistency, she has begun to blossom. Each day she has taken brave little steps forward — approaching for gentle pets, showing curiosity, and learning that people can be safe. Her sweetness is undeniable, and once she trusts you, she leans into affection with a quiet, grateful tenderness that is truly special.
Beauty will need a patient, understanding family who can take things slowly and give her the space to decompress at her own pace. A calm home, predictable routines, and gentle encouragement will help her continue her journey toward confidence and comfort.
She has already survived so much — now she deserves a home where she will finally feel safe, loved, and valued.
If you have room in your heart for a shy but incredibly rewarding companion, Beauty may be the one you’ve been waiting for.
All of our dogs are dewormed, spayed/neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and heartworm tested if they are old enough. If you're interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website at https://www.sftsrescue.org/adoptable-dogs
