Rachel

My story

Meet Rachel! This sweet, shy girl joined Miri's from a puppy mill where she was kept in a metal cage for her whole life. Rachel isn't used to receiving love and care from humans so she's looking for a family that will be patient with her as she adjusts to her new life. She's decompressing and learning to trust her foster parents, but she is THRILLED to be out of her cage and celebrates each day with the most joyful morning zoomies you will ever see. Rachel is learning that humans can be kind. She's taking it slow getting to know her foster family but already loves sleeping in her own bed in her foster mom's room. She likes being near her new people, but not too near -- yet! Rachel gets along well with the other dogs in her foster home and is fine with the cats there too. She walks well on the leash, loves wandering around the fenced in yard, enjoys car rides, and is fine left home on her own for a little while. Rachel is hard at work on potty training but for now is doing well with a belly band, and would do great in a home that can provide her with a consistent daily routine. Can you give Rachel the love and kindness she's missed out on her whole life? Rachel is approx 7 years old and 8 lbs. Fostered in Winchester, VA Please apply at MirisHaven.org
