Scarecrow

Scarecrow is a sweet but shy beauty who is overwhelmed in the shelter environment. Her silly, playful, goofy, sweet, relaxed self shines when she’s in a quiet place with her known friends. Scarecrow landed in the shelter after her owner was badly injured in a car accident, no longer able to care for Scarecrow. Her first weeks at the shelter were heartbreaking with Scarecrow cowering in the corner of her kennel. But then, over time, we saw her begin to blossom. She started to show more interest in staff and regular volunteers, eventually gobbling up the treats we tossed in her kennel. What a great day when she finally solicited petting through her kennel! She then ventured out to the shelter’s play yard and then went on walks on the shelter grounds with staff she knew well. She made friends with other dogs. Now, Scarecrow loves to go on walks in peaceful areas with people she knows well, even better with a doggy pal. The shelter is still a tough and scary place for her. She is in desperate need of a foster or adoptive home.
