Meet Chanel, a resilient 3 to 4-year-old terrier mix who has blossomed into an energetic, happy dog after a heartbreaking start. She was abandoned in a crowded New Mexico shelter and was on the euthanasia list before being rescued and brought to Texas. She's even a hero who donates blood to save other lives! While her transformation is incredible, she is still searching for her perfect family. Chanel enjoys toys and balls, especially soft squeakers, though she's still learning how to play with them and can be easily startled by loud noises. Due to her past trauma, she can be flinchy when hands reach towards her, so she needs a gentle, understanding environment where she can feel safe and take things at her own pace.
