We just moved into our house in New Mexico. I believe it's a desert box turtle that my wonderful dog dug up. I think it was hibernating? The house has been empty for about a year before we moved in. He chewed on the shell a little bit, but I don't think he did any other damage. I have it in a box in my shed for right now. My question is, how do I tell if it's still hibernating or if its just hiding in it's shell? I've never had a turtle and I'm not sure what to do to help it. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as I really don't want anything to happen to it.
