Amy’s story: This tiny little sweetheart is so sweet. But she’s also shy. Rather than run up to you when you meet, Amy will likely try to hide. She needs an owner who understands that trust needs to be earned and who will take their time helping her learn to trust them. But once she does trust, she shines. She enjoys the company of other dogs, especially those who are comfortable in their surroundings and so will help her feel the same. If you are a patient person who enjoys the journey as much as the destination, helping little Amy become a confident, loving dog will be well worth the effort.
