Hey y'all! I'm Twiggs. I’m a very shut-down puppy who is still trying to feel safe in the world. Right now, I tend to freeze during interactions and am too overwhelmed to show my personality yet. Canine companions do tend to make me feel a bit more comfortable, however. I need a very quiet, low-traffic home with a predictable routine where I can decompress and begin to build trust at my own pace. Because of how fearful I am, I’m not sure I'm a fit for a home with small children or a busy environment with lots of traffic. I will need a patient, experienced adopter who understands fearful or under-socialized dogs and is committed to going slow. With time, consistency, and gentle handling, I have the potential to come out of my shell.
