Zinnia's Story

!!️ SPECIAL FOSTERS NEEDED- Plea for Our Flower Girls: Daisy & Zinnia 🌼 <br/><br/>Daisy (white) and Zinnia (brindle) have been with us since July 22nd, and while they've made meaningful progress, we believe the shelter environment have taken Daisy and Zinnia as far as it can. These girls would truly benefit from specialized foster homes to help them grow in their confidence and become adoptable!<br/><br/>When these girls arrived with their sister, Rose, they were terrified of the world. For weeks, they could barely be touched and refused to go outside. They would quiver in the corner when any human was present. Through daily work, patience, and unwavering dedication from our staff and volunteers, Daisy and Zinnia have slowly begun to trust. We're so happy to share that Rose has already been adopted, and now it's time for her sisters to find their chance at a happy ending too. 💗<br/><br/>We truly feel that continuing in a kennel setting will make it difficult for them to reach a "typical" adoptable place. What these girls need now is a calm, patient home where they can decompress, go at their own pace, and begin to understand what life outside survival mode feels like.<br/><br/>What Daisy & Zinnia Need:<br/>- A patient, understanding foster or adopter<br/>- A home willing to give them time, space, and grace<br/>- Another confident dog in the home is an absolute MUST -- they learn best by watching and following a canine role model<br/>- A fenced-in yard, because once they feel safe, they love to run and play with their dog friends<br/><br/>While Daisy and Zinnia rely heavily on each other right now, we believe that to truly grow and find their own confidence, they will do best in separate foster homes, each paired with a confident dog who can show them the ropes.<br/><br/>These girls have clearly been through something traumatic. They are not "broken" -- they are healing. And with the right person, their world could finally begin to feel safe.<br/><br/>If you've ever had a soft spot for the underdog...<br/>If you believe love can be quiet and slow...<br/>If you have the patience to let trust bloom...<br/><br/>🌸 Please consider fostering or adopting Daisy or Zinnia. 🌸<br/>You could be the turning point in their story.<br/><br/>If you can't foster or adopt, PLEASE SHARE!! Sharing this profile helps more than you know. 💕<br/><br/>📍 730 Church Street New Kensington, PA<br/>📝 Foster Application: https://form.jotform.com/213275062626049<br/>📧 adoptions@animalprotectors.net<br/>📞 (724) 339-7388
