Hiii, Simba here. I’m a jolly dog who loves to play and be frisky with my furry friends at the shelter. Running around, wrestling, and having fun. Life is an adventure, and I try to make the most of it! But beneath all that energy, there’s a part of me that’s still learning to trust.

I was a healthy, happy puppy, playing in the streets, when one day, someone left me in front of Sneha’s Care. Just like that, my world changed. Was I too much for them? A burden? I don’t know why they left me, but I do know it hurt. Since February 26, 2024, the day I arrived here, I’ve struggled with trust. Small things trigger me, and sometimes, when I feel scared, I might show my teeth, it’s not because I want to hurt anyone, but because I don’t know how else to protect myself.

Despite my fears, I’ve been lucky. Someone saw past my rough edges and loved me for who I am. My godparent accepts me, frisky side and all, and that means the world to me. Maybe one day, I’ll trust even more and let my guard down completely. Until then, I’ll keep playing, keep learning, and keep hoping for more kindness in my life.
