Sketchers estimated date of birth is 12/9/24, so young and she has already been through more than any young dog should. She was rescued from the shelter with only hours left before being euthanized. When she arrived, she was terrified and unsure of everything around her.
Sketchers is very shy right now and still learning that the world can be a safe place. She seems to have scar marks around her muzzle, which may mean she was restrained tightly at some point in her past. Because of this, she is especially sensitive and needs people who will be patient and gentle with her.
Even though she is scared, Sketchers deserves the chance to finally feel safe and loved. With time, kindness, and a calm home, she can slowly learn to trust again and grow into the happy dog she was meant to be. She is just a young girl who needs someone willing to show her that her life can be different now.
