My heart breaks that poor Melia waits each day for someone to adopt her. It's like a never ending Ground Hog's day. Let's skip to the end and find her family. Please keep sharing until she's adopted. Then we can all rejoice in your happy ending. 🙏💖🐾
Dreaming of a quiet adult only home, taking nice walks, running around, playing, sitting by her special human, going for car rides, getting belly rubs, and enjoying life! With no dogs. Make her dream true ❤️

A beginner intro to what a mask is in photo editing.
Intimidated by masks? I am learning and sharing my journey so you can learn too. My cats and I are having fun learning how a mask works, the tools to use, and how to get better with your software.

Please continue to share Melia.
After 820+ days in the shelter, it’s a matter of time and exposure. She doesn’t deserve to wait another year. The right person is out there.
Located in Hempstead, NY. Training funded for the lucky adopter or rescue group who pulls Melia.
