Betsy Ross

Playful and resilient Betsy Ross is looking for her furever home in Florida! <br/><br/>Betsy Ross got her name after she was found on the Fourth of July, abandoned inside a crate and left outside in the heat. Her skin was incredibly sensitive and covered in painful rashes from what she had endured. She had every reason to be afraid of the world, but this resilient girl is slowly learning that people can be safe and life can be good.<br/><br/>Betsy is settling beautifully into her foster home and has already started working on basic obedience, including sit, down, touch, come, and leash skills. She is incredibly smart and continues to make progress every day.<br/><br/>Because of her past, Betsy needs a family who understands that trust may take a little time. She tends to feel more comfortable with women and can be cautious around new people, particularly men. In her foster home, she may bark and keep her distance from unfamiliar men at first. Meeting new people on neutral ground is easier for her, although she can still occasionally be standoffish until she realizes she is safe.<br/><br/>And once Betsy decides you are safe? You get to see the sweet, loving, goofy girl underneath all of that uncertainty. She is continuing to work on her confidence around other dogs and is already showing improvement. Betsy is still young, learning, healing, and working through the trauma of everything she experienced before being rescued.<br/><br/>What makes her so special is how far she has already come. From being left outside in a crate on the Fourth of July with painful skin and no one looking out for her, to learning commands, going on walks, building relationships, and discovering what it feels like to be loved.<br/><br/>Betsy Ross is looking for someone patient and compassionate who will give her the time she needs to feel safe and continue becoming the amazing dog we already know she is.<br/><br/>She is available for adoption in the Tampa Bay Area. Please apply online or send us a message for more information.<br/>www.compassionkind.org/adopt
