Not 100% yet. As rescues that lived outdoors, they'll need some time to adjust. Most adapt within 1-2 weeks of consistent training.<br/>- The breed listed is our best guess (since they're rescues!)<br/><br/>She was darting through a busy highway overpass - a small, frantic shape throwing herself between cars, too scared and hungry to understand the danger she was in. Vehicles swerved around her. She kept running. Diego saw her from the road and couldn't bring himself to drive away.<br/><br/>Getting close wasn't easy. A dog that afraid will run from help just as fast as from harm. But Diego was patient. He stayed until she finally let him reach her, thin and trembling, and brought her home.<br/><br/>She arrived at her foster home almost nothing - ribs showing, flinching at sounds, wide-eyed with the kind of fear that comes from a life spent entirely on edge. "She was terrified of everything around her," Diego says. "Even the smallest things set her off." But Foxy was never going to stay that way.<br/><br/>Within a few weeks, something shifted. The dog who had been too scared to accept kindness started trotting around the house with toys in her mouth, roughhousing with the other dogs, and leaning into her foster's arms like she'd been waiting her whole short life to finally feel safe. "She's like a little girl now," Diego says - and he means it as the best possible thing.<br/><br/>The thing that stands out most about Foxy is how she is with children. Around kids, she becomes something else entirely - patient, gentle, absolutely delighted. She'll let a child wrap their arms around her and press her whole body into the hug. She walks nicely on leash, plays with toys, romps with her dog friends, and has already figured out that inside is for sleeping and outside is for everything else. She's active without being intense, affectionate without being clingy, and quiet in a way that's easy to live with.<br/><br/>If you have kids at home, or just want a dog who's made it through the hard part and come out the other side sweet and full of life - could Foxy be your girl?<br/><br/><br/><br/>*************************<br/>Ready to apply?
