Meadow

Meadow is the heart of her little pack – a gentle ringleader who shows the others what bravery looks like, one small step at a time. She and four other young dogs came from a property in San Antonio where they had almost no human interaction. The only person they knew was an elderly man who would step outside to leave food and water. Because of that, Meadow is still learning what it means to feel safe with people. Despite her shyness, Meadow is the most social of the group and the first to approach. She’ll come up to the kennel, sniff your hand, and especially if you have treats, she will gather the courage to get a little closer. She’s treat-motivated and will gently take them from you, which is a big step forward for a pup who’s still figuring out trust. Right now, touch can still feel scary to her, but she’s curious and willing, and that’s everything.
