Meet Chanel, a resilient 3 to 4-year-old terrier mix who was once on a euthanasia list at a crowded New Mexico shelter, terrified and shut down. Thankfully, she was brought to Texas and has since blossomed into an energetic, happy dog who even donates blood to save other lives! While her transformation is incredible, she is still a work in progress and is searching for a patient family and a canine companion to help her rebuild her faith in humanity and learn to trust again. Chanel enjoys toys and balls, especially soft squeakers, though she can be easily startled by loud noises and is still figuring out how to play with them. Due to her past trauma, she can be flinchy when hands reach toward her, so she needs a gentle, understanding environment where she can take things at her own pace and feel truly safe.
