About Susan

Meet sweet Susan. Susan came to us from another rescue, and she's learning that she's safe and surrounded by people who care about her. This shy girl may need some extra time and patience before she opens up and reveals her true personality. Once she starts to warm up, you’ll realize how special this gentle soul truly is. Susan thrives in a quiet, patient home where she can take her time and build confidence. Trust is earned slowly, and she’ll need someone who understands this delicate process. Regular grooming will also help keep her comfortable and looking her best. If you’re willing to offer Susan the kindness and patience she deserves, you might just become her favorite person—and discover a wonderful companion waiting beneath her shy exterior.
