Miley is just seven months old and has already suffered the anguish of being returned for chewing her adopters glasses.
A puppy dubbed her shelter's 'most frightened dog' no longer needs to be scared.Miley was just seven months old when she first arrived at the shelter.'She was transferred here from another shelter where she was not having much luck finding a home,' Cherie Wachter from the Humane Society of Broward County told Newsweek. The hustle and bustle of a busy shelter environment can be intimidating to some dogs.
'On our PAL program—which stands for Petting, Attention & Love—volunteers spend quiet, quality time with the animals.'Despite her difficulties, it was clear that once Miley found that special someone outside of the shelter system, she would be an entirely different dog.'When she was taken outside, she would perk up and enjoy the fresh air and become energetic at times,' Wachter said.
