The shelter OFTEN gets over-capacity, meaning then good doggies get euthanized due to lack of space!!! Crapshoot which dogs are chosen. Melina arrived at the shelter on July 14th as an owner surrender. She is afraid of the shelter environment, which is not surprising, esp. expected, since remembers something much more different, a home. She prefers to try to hide away in corners, but does take comfort in being petted by the volunteers and also sometimes will take treats from them. She is described by them as 'topping the charts with her sadness', is gentle, needs a home that will let her have the time to feel safe and loved once again. She has 2 leash tests (with female dogs, so with male dogs, should be fine), timid, but interested. PLEASE email to meet this so adorable, but very sad doggie, who needs a stable, patient home, that will let her put her guard down at her own pace, feel love, again! She can also be fostered, besides adopted.
