Meet Zara, a sweet little mixed breed girl who weighs about 20 pounds and is approximately 2 years old. Zara came from a hoarding situation, where she did not receive the time, love, or affection every dog deserves. Despite her difficult start, she is now fully vetted, spayed, microchipped, and ready to find the forever home she has been waiting for. Zara enjoys the company of other kind, gentle little dogs and, like her brother Ernie, can be shy when meeting new people. What she needs most is a patient, loving home that understands trust takes time. With kindness, consistency, and patience, Zara will have the chance to blossom into the wonderful companion she is meant to be. Zara and dogs like her deserve our understanding and our patienceand they are worth the wait in spades. If you are willing to give Zara the love and time she never had before, she just may become the perfect little addition to your family.
