Current assessment and personality: Adira arrived in our care super emaciated and weak. She went down over night and had to be lifted with a sling. This girl fought hard and is now thriving in our care! She is looking for a patient and caring adopter to live out the rest of her years! Adira can be skeptical of people at first, but seems to warm up quick. She will need someone to continue to show her the ropes and build up her trust.
