Maybe after time she will get used to the men. Sinse I adopted Chino, we don't know where he came from either. When we first got him for about 6 months he would bark and growl at everyone especially men with facial hair. He wouldnt trust anyone who came up to him but if you ignored him, he would sneak up to you them, sniff them, then finally jump on their laps. But now, he doesnt act that way at all! He gets really excited to meet new people- men or women. Maybe Trin will change over time after she realizes that the men can be trusted. Just make sure those men dont tease her... she may never trust them. -Amanda
