Story
Special Requirements: Must be a quiet household, Children must be 10+ yearsBabe is a 4-year-old Rat Terrier mix with a big heart and a story of resilience. Her life was turned upside down when her owner passed away, and she was surrendered to animal control. After finding her way to West Suburban and into a loving foster home, Babe has been slowly adjusting to the changes in her life.Babe can be nervous around men, she does better with women and has formed a strong bond with her foster mom, showing her sweet, affectionate side. She is working on excepting attention from the husband in the household and they have seen improvement with quiet/calm persistence. Babe tends to be a picky eater and may need some extra time to feel comfortable enough to eat regular meals in her new home. Patience is key, and she will likely thrive with a routine and gentle encouragement.Babe has visited the dog park, though she can be a bit shy in new environments it is helping her to be brave around others. She does best with dogs her size or smaller and would likely benefit from a calm, low-key atmosphere. With a little time, effort, and love, Babe will open up and flourish into the loyal and loving companion she was always meant to be. She bonds quickly with her person and will shower you with affection once she feels safe. Babe is looking for a patient and understanding adopter who can give her the space she needs to continue her journey to becoming the best dog she can be.
