My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Are you ready to add a splash of joy and a sprinkle of sunshine to your life? Meet Melita, a one-year-old Golden Retriever/Shepherd mix who’s been waiting far too long for her forever home. Rescued from Mexico as a tiny pup, Melita has blossomed into a smart, affectionate, and playful companion, and she’s eager to share her love with a family who will help her continue to grow.

Melita is a water-loving, toy-tossing bundle of fun who enjoys nothing more than a good belly rub after a day of play. Whether it’s splashing in the water, chewing on a bone, or playing with her doggy friends, Melita knows how to have a good time. She’s great with dogs, cats, and kids, making her the perfect fit for a lively household.

This clever girl is crate trained and making great progress with her leash and house training. With a little patience and positive reinforcement, Melita will be showing off her good manners in no time. She does have a bit of a resource-guarding habit when it comes to her food and bones, so she’d appreciate having her own space during mealtime.

Melita would thrive in a home with other dogs to play with, who can help her settle in and feel at ease in new environments. She’s looking for a loving, patient family who will give her the time and training she needs to become the best version of herself.

If you’re ready to make memories with a loyal and loving companion, Melita is the one for you. Give this sweet girl the forever home she deserves—she’s been waiting for you!

We are dedicated to providing the best possible care for these animals until they can be placed into a loving home. Our ultimate goal is to reduce the number of dogs that are euthanized each year in shelters due to lack of adoptions. We believe that every dog deserves a chance at a happy life and we are committed to helping as many dogs as possible.
