Bashful's Story

As his name suggests, Bashful can be a bit... well, Bashful. However, he loves to play with toys and would love for you to take the time to help him open up. When you walk by Bashful's pen, he tries to initiate play and he loves toys. However, as soon as a stranger is in his pen or he's outside, he suddenly becomes quite timid. While he would take some time to win over, his adorable underbite and fun personality are worth the extra effort.
