Meet Kelli. Kelli is an 8-month-old mixed breed pup who has been through a lot in her short life. She came to TAPS as an infant with her mom and littermates and was adopted for 4 months before being dumped at a partner animal control. They transferred her to us where we have been working on building her confidence and helping her unlearn that humans are scary and can't be trusted. The previous adopters did not work with Kelli so she has puppy tendencies in a growing body and she will need to be taught obedience. Kelli is understandably overwhelmed in the shelter environment; right now a lot of noise stresses her out, as well as new environments. With patience, the staff states that she opens up and melts into a complete lovebug so if you can be the family who is willing to wait, play, walk, train, and give her all the love and attention that she deserves.
