Being in a warm home with a loving family is every dogs biggest dream Unfortunately many canines nowadays are not so lucky because most of them are forced to fend for themselves on the street or spend their days in the shelter
Overcrowded shelters whose employees must perform euthanasia in order to increase the capacity of these institutions are the best proof of this
It is especially a difficult and sad situation for neglected and abused dogs who due to their shyness and fear are often overlooked by potential adopters
However the fact that miracles do happen is best demonstrated by the case of one dog whose shyness helped him to finally leave his kennel and settle down in a forever home
Her Heart Couldnt Handle It

When this family came to the BARCS Animal Shelter in Baltimore Maryland it was standard procedure to walk from kennel to kennel looking at the dogs and thinking about which one to give a forever home
At one point their daughter broke away from them and went to a kennel that housed a dog that did not come out to the front to greet them This dog stayed in a small corner of the kennel barely peeking his head out
