Cleo came to us, along with several other dogs, from a commercial breeding facility. Not surprisingly, she had little to no socialization while there and as such, she is quite shy and nervous at first. Everything is new to her; leashes, collars, any handling or touching at all, etc. However, in typical canine fashion, she is moving forward and making great progress despite how scared she must be.
She is now walking on leash and has gone farther on her walks each time she goes out, she does stall once in a while to get her bearings but then recovers and continues on.
Because of her nervousness and handling sensitivities she would do best in a home with adults only or kids 12+ who know how to give her space and let her gain confidence at her own speed. But she is sooooo ready to leave her prior life behind her and she so deserves a safe, loving forever home - where she can learn what it is really like to be a cherished part of someone's family.
