Pretzel is a shy, sensitive girl who is new to our program and still learning about the world around her. She is unsure with new people and new environments and is still building trust, and just needs a little time to see that you are safe. A less-is-more approach will go a long way with Pretzel—quiet time together, like simply sitting nearby or reading to her, helps her feel safe and start to come out of her shell. Touch is not her love language until she feels comfortable, but quality time is definitely her love language. With patience (and a few tasty treats!), she begins to warm up and show her sweet side. We think once she feels comfortable, she has the potential to become a true velcro dog.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
