My story

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

Hi there, I'm Shelby! One night, while I was sleeping, a fairy visited me. She sprinkled some magical dust on me and the next thing I knew, I was in this warm, friendly place they call a shelter. I was scared at first, but then I realized, this was a chance for a new beginning. I've made so many friends here, both humans and animals alike. But what I really want is a family to call my own. I promise to be the sweetest, most friendly companion you could ever wish for. I have so much love to give and I can't wait to share it with my forever family. Will you be the one to make my wish come true?
