Don’t shop, adopt – it’s a motto that going on for a long time. And for good reason too – there are many animals in pet centers looking for a lovely home. They have been mistreated in the past or abandoned, but these animals have not given up their trust in human beings. They are still hopeful that a kind-hearted hooman will come and take them and give them loads of love.

Such an aspiring dog has been living in the shelter for about 2 years. She has been named Baby Girl. This shelter dog is almost 4 years old and loves cuddling and playing. However, Shelby Backhus, the director, mentions that she can take a little bit of time before warming up to complete strangers. That’s understandable – after all, many dogs have gone through terrible things in the past which makes them a bit distrustful about human beings. Baby Girl is a shepherd mix. She remained a shelter dog without a proper home from 2017, December. The center is located at Capital Made Society in Lincoln.
Backhus mentions that Baby Girl, while friendly, does not appreciate other pets. She has a history of biting another dog. However, she can slowly become a good companion dog. So, Backhus suggests not to keep other dogs with her.
