A Staff member writes : Meet Frito!! Frito is a nervous little girl that is looking for a caring home.  Frito did bite an officer while being brought in, and though she has not shown aggressive behavior in the care center, she remains very tense and nervous. Frito has been depressed, and is not eating well. She would do best in an Experienced home without children, where she can decompress and gain some much needed confidence.
