This is our sweet Bodie. She is a little cautious at first but not for long. She loves the attention she is getting from the kennel staff and the walks from the volunteers. Bodie has been picked on by a littermate but still seems to accept some other dogs. Bodie is quiet and knows her commands. Please keep in mind that the shelter can be a very stressful environment. Studies show that a minimum of 3 days decompression drastically lowers stress hormones, and allows the dog to show more personality after they have settled in.
