We got our first foster of 2011 about a week ago.
She was only supposed to be here a week, until Jake arrived for us (our intended foster).
However this little girl is in no shape to go many places.
She is very scared and almost shut down. She will eat (when no - one is around) and has not snapped at me, and perked her ears up at me yesterday (for this picture). She wants nothing that people have to offer. She doesn't want you to touch her, she won't walk and will not respond in any way. Its very sad.
She has laid (smashed up against the back) in a crate in our dining room for a week with no real response. She's young, but appears to have had no exposure to humans. This is new for me, I'm good with the crazy ones! This girl is the opposite of Mr. Smithey Piston!
Here she is hiding under the deck. She doesn't move anywhere willingly, except to get away from you. I'm not going to talk about the hours it took to get her out from under the deck. In fact we didn't - we gave up and finally Ollie got her out and I tricked her!
I named her Piru (PieRoo). I was calling her RooRoo (like in Winnie the Pooh)
Piru means devil in Finnish... it's the change I hope to see in her.

Angie,
She is so pretty and so scared. The fear is all over her. I know she will come around with your loving touch. I know she will come to know and love your touch. Good for old Ollie getting to come out from under the deck. Smithey Piston and I are cheering you on! Give Ollie a kiss from Smithey P. I will give Smithey P. a good neck scratch for you.
