Story
Daffodil aka Dilly 🌼 Dilly is a special girl who has spent the last year conducting some very serious research into whether humans can actually be trusted. When Dilly first came into our program, she was a scared little mess. During the day, she wanted absolutely nothing to do with anyone and preferred the safety of her crate. Once night fell and the humans were safely out of the way, she'd creep around her foster home like a tiny mouse. Then one day... Dilly came out during daylight hours. She walked into the middle of the room, stood completely still, and stared at everyone like she had just made the biggest mistake of her life. But she survived. 😂 So she tried it again. Little by little, Dilly started spending more time outside of her crate. She made friends with her foster family's dogs, and having canine buddies around seemed to convince her that maybe being part of a family wasn't such a terrible idea after all. Fast forward to today, and Dilly has officially decided that her foster mom is her best friend. Foster dad? The jury is still out. She's keeping an eye on him. She still has some of her little feral tendencies. Fast movements? Suspicious. Being picked up? Absolutely unnecessary, thank you very much. But somewhere along the way, Dilly discovered that pets are actually pretty great. Then she discovered cuddles. And eventually, she realized that being loved might not be so scary after all. Dilly will likely take a few steps backward when she moves into a new home. New people and a new environment are going to be a big adjustment for her, and she'll need someone who won't rush the process. Her adopter will need to let her hide, watch, investigate, and eventually decide on her own that they're worth trusting. But we've already watched her do it once. We know that underneath that suspicious little exterior is a dog who desperately wants connection. When Dilly finally decides you're one of her people, you've earned something pretty special. She's just going to need a minute to make sure you're not sketchy first. 🌼
