Slinky

This Slinky Dog has had a pretty rough start, but we're hoping the rest of his story looks a whole lot different.Meet Slinky, a sweet 2-year-old boy who arrived at our shelter alongside his two kiddos, Woody and Bo Peep. All three came to us with fleas, scared, and unsure of the world around them. But of the three, poor Slinky was in the worst shape.The fleas had taken quite a toll on his little body, leaving him with significant hair loss. While those pesky fleas are finally gone, Slinky is still working on growing his fur back. His coat might look a little rough around the edges right now, but we think he's pretty darn handsome anyway.And just like his kids, Slinky is still learning that people can be trusted. He's a timid little guy who needs time to feel comfortable around new faces. He's not going to be the dog who immediately runs into your arms, but that doesn't mean he doesn't want love. He's just not quite sure how to accept it yet.He just needs someone willing to look past his shyness and patchy fur to see the wonderful little dog underneath.We're hoping to find Slinky a family who understands that healing takes time. His fur will grow back, but building his confidence and trust might take a little longer. He deserves someone who won't rush him, who will celebrate every little step forward, and who will love him just as much on his scared days as they do on his brave ones.His two kiddos, Woody and Bo Peep, are also searching for their forever homes. All three have a little healing left to do, but we know the right families can make all the difference.Slinky doesn't need to have a perfect coat or a perfect personality to deserve a perfect ending. He just needs someone willing to give him oneInterested in adopting?
