Petal is a petite girl who is experiencing some barrier reactivity from fear related to the busyness of the shelter. When out on walks she has not shown any reactivity and has been walking nicely for staff and volunteers. She is a little shy at first, but once she opens up loves attention and cuddling. She met another dog here at the shelter already and did well, but would do best meeting dog siblings to make sure their play style and energy matches before going home. She does not have any history with cats, so would need a separate space and slow introduction if living with any cats in foster.
How to Foster Petal:
New fosters can take the first step by learning about fostering and signing up to become a new foster. Veteran foster parents can email fosters@hshv.org to schedule a pickup appointment.
