Sweet Melanie is looking for a furever home and hooman pawrents to love her. 🙏🏼💕🐾

Is everybody asleep? 😴 Unplugged? 📵 Acting a fool?
Because Melanie is out here being an actually perfect dog 🐕‍🦺 and somehow people are still sleeping on her.

Five events.
Hundreds of people walking by.
Zero love for this gorgeous, loyal, athletic, ridiculously smart girl. 💔

What’s the deal?
Does she smell? (She doesn’t.) 👃❌
Is her breath funky? (Also no.) 😮‍💨❌
Did you miss the moment she looked at you like you were her whole world? ✨
Because THAT moment definitely happened.

Here’s the truth about Melanie:
• She’s a young, active, working-breed mix (Doberman/GSD). 🐾
• She LOVES routines, walks, and tennis balls. 🎾
• She thrives with structure and an adopter who understands working dogs.
• Dog-friendly, she's a girls girl, and a guys girl. She's pretty chill. 🐕
• Great with older kids (10+). 👦👧
• Loves being part of the action and melts into family life. 🛋️
• Housebroken, smart, athletic, loyal, and absolutely stunning. 💅
• Runs like the wind, naps like a queen. 👑
• Wants nothing more than her own humans. ❤️

She has done everything right.
She shows up, tries her hardest, and keeps hoping her person is out there. 💫

So… was there a missed connection? 📨
Did you meet her and think about her again later?
Were you too shy to ask about her?
Did you blink and miss your chance? 👀

If this girl has been stuck in your brain even a little — email us.
It might actually be you. 💛

Melanie is ready.
Are you finally awake enough to see it? ☕👁️

❤️ Thank you to her foster Gary, for giving this incredible girl a real chance.

So humbled and thankful by all the lovely messages, calls, love & thoughts on my special day yesterday! It sure was a busy day! Particularly grateful to Sun Ny, Victor and Patty for the lovely special gestures! 🙏🏼🥰❣️ And and of course always thankful to the glorious sunny day that blessed my day and the bezillion furry loves who took me hiking and kept me on my toes! Two of the furry loves even sent me flying! (I still have all me teef, it’s okay, just a few bruises and pine needles here & there. 😅). Lastly super thankful to all the families whose dogs I care for whom I love just as much as their fur buns! Thankful & humbled by all the love. ❤️
