What if there was no other home but the shelter? Zhara and her siblings were found in a box, abandoned in the cold. The little ones were rescued, taken to the shelter, and all found homes—except for Zhara. She has been waiting for her person for six years, someone who won't hesitate to offer time, patience, and love so that this girl can overcome her fears.

Shy and Sensitive Sweetheart

Zhara is delicate and gentle. She approaches strangers with caution, but once she learns to trust, she becomes a loving and sociable cuddle enthusiast. The world seems shaky, changeable, and frightening to her, while her familiar kennel is the only stable place she knows. It's hard for Zhara to take a step out of her cage, and even harder to cross the shelter's threshold and venture into the big world. Yet this brave girl is learning to face her fears and take that step. It’s tough to be timid and sensitive. She desperately needs a reliable friend to help her greet each new day with confidence.
