Shelter notes are all the information we have. She deserves the chance to feel safe again. Cece is a 10-year-old, 42 lb female who was owner surrendered when her owner could no longer care for her and her siblings, all under socialized. It appears Cece and her siblings lived a very sheltered life prior to arriving at the shelter and had never been walked on a leash. Since intake, she has been extremely shut down and overwhelmed by the shelter environment. Cece is very fearful and will often freeze in place, tremble, and avoid eye contact when approached. She does not currently walk on leash and sometimes needs to be gently carried or assisted between kennel spaces. Despite her fear, Cece remains very tolerant and gentle. She allows staff to handle her, leash her, and pet her without resistance or aggression. When given time in a quiet office with familiar dogs from her previous home, Cece chooses to lay close beside them and begins to relax. She clearly finds comfort in calm canine companionship. Today she appears a little less shaky and has been resting peacefully, which gives us hope that as she decompresses we may begin to see more of her personality emerge. Cece is a sensitive senior who desperately needs a quiet, patient home or rescue where she can decompress and slowly build confidence.
