Notes from Animal Rescue Fund of MS

I'm a shy little sweetheart! Takes a little warming up time for me, but I'm gentle, even-tempered, and easygoing once I get acclimated to change. Skeeter is a blank slate waiting for the right person to guide her. With a patient handler, a quiet routine, and gentle encouragement, her true personality will eventually shine. Giving her a consistent schedule and letting her explore new spaces at her own very slow pace will be the key to building her confidence.
