At the BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas, there is less and less chance of restoring an 11-month-old puppy’s faith in people. Two weeks ago, Scarlett’s foster parents saved the puppy’s life, but they have since acknowledged that they lack the skills required to handle a dog this fearful and shut down.
Scarlet arrived at the shelter on May 10, 2023, as a stray. She weighed 45 pounds and was classified as a Labrador retriever mix. She first retreated to a shelter corner, refused rewards, and shuddered and trembled whenever someone approached her.

The dog was scheduled for execution on May 15, but a BARC foster intervened just in time to spare her. And she’s returned. It’s not Scarlet’s fault; she didn’t realize that everyone may be kind right now. We require an experienced foster caregiver who can care for animals like Scarlett.
