My daughter and I went to the aninmal shelter to see if they had any guiena pigs for adoption. When we arrived, a volunteer was standing at the door with a little dog in her arms that looked scared. I inquired about this little dog. The volunteer said that she had been abused and needed to be socialized and that they were trying to find her a foster home at the time. My daughter and I went on in the building to look for guiena pigs. When we discovered none available, I went back to the front of the building and inquired about the scared little dog again. The volunteer let my daughter and I take this scared little one to a place to sit down with her. We sat and talked to her for a little while and offered her some food. She took the food from my daughter's hand and ate it. The volunteer said that they hadn't been able to get this scared little girl to eat. The volunteer told us that if we wanted to adopt her, she was ours. We went through the adoption process, took her home, where she still is this day and very happy.
