New years goal - to find MELIA a peaceful, loving adult only home. No dogs. Cats are ok. Training is funded to help her be the best she can be. You just have to be fully committed. Be her forever 💗💗💗

Here's Bond! Doggy Bond rather than James.

He's been with us since August and has learned to "tripod" brilliantly.

‘But MAGA is a grift machine for losers’ 👍🏻👍🏻
If she’d been a better swimmer, she’d be much poorer today.

But MAGA is a grift machine for losers
NEW: Riley Gaines, the former collegiate swimmer turned right-wing media figure, made $474,313 last year from the conservative nonprofit org, the Leadership Institute. More striking than her total comp was the way it was structured.

The Professor, our foster dog, is up for adoption but has had zero applications. And I get it, people are busy, but he’s wonderful.

Not a sleep in your lap dog but the king of sleep next to you dogs. Just a nice little 4 month old gentleman. With a PhD.

Will MELIA get her happily ever after? She doesn't want to spend another Christmas in the shelter. 😢 Santa claus must have a special someone for her.

I've been receiving so many messages from people here having their own "MELIA" in their home. Many looking like her too. I can't thank you enough for sharing your story. Many think she's a forgotten soul. I know there's someone out there for her ❤️

Look, people, there is no evidence that Senator Tom Cotton was caught pleasuring himself while watching the video of those survivors clinging to a portion of a wrecked boat until they were murdered by a second missile.

There's just no truth to that at all. Stop saying it.

Hempstead animal shelter #1 thing they're looking for in an adopter for MELIA.

"Hello, we would need an applicant that has experience with resource guarding and stranger issues, as she does have a bite history with both those behavioral issues."
