This girl is the most timid of the four. Every few steps she puts the brakes on, uncertain about where I'm taking her but other than that, she's almost at the point where she enjoys being around people more than she is afraid of being around people.
When I get her outside, she sits close to the door and takes it all in. Being a puppy mill dog, she's never had much experience with being outside of a cage let alone outside in the big wide world. I'm know she's been taken out by others at TAS already but it seems she's still getting used to the concept.
She loves her brother, though, and as soon as he walks by, she greets him with a playful paw and a kiss and her anxiety vanishes.
Not long now before she's out of her shell completely.
For adoption information on these and other dogs (and cats and other animals), please visit Toronto Animal Services.
Good girl! It won't take her long to adjust to a forever home.
