Story
Meleys is an 11-month-old, 33 lb bundle of sugar, spice, and everything nice. She’s looking for a forever home to match her sweet, playful nature! This pint-sized pittie already proved to be the epitome of Destiny’s Child Survivor. Found in abandoned in the streets of Newark, NJ, Meleys was skin and bones- too weak to move or lift her head. The shelter staff brought her to the shelter on a stretcher. While her body was failing, Meleys refused to give up. She was determined to thrive and reclaim her sparkle! We knew this girl belonged with us and quickly mobilized to bring her home to heal. The shelter staff went above and beyond stabilizing Meleys and preparing her for transfer. Since arriving her our foster home, Meleys reclaimed her life and joy. We couldn’t be more proud of how far she’s come. Today, you’d never guess the hardships she’s endured and overcome. Meleys is a happy, healthy girl with a heart full of love. She gets along beautifully with other dogs, especially the more easygoing ones, and loves to play. Meleys just adores humans and meeting anyone that gives her a glance- quickly winning over even the toughest audiences. Her ideal home is active, ready to match her newfound zest for life. Meleys might be approaching a year old, but she is a puppy through and through. She loves car rides and takes her human foster sibling to school every day. When walking on leash, she prances and soaks up time to bond with her human. She would thrive with someone interested in teaching her agility, advanced tricks, or anything to help her grow and learn. She loves to be the best student in class! Our girl never got to enjoy her ‘youth’. She decided this is her time to shine, grow, and SPARKLE again. With the heart of a warrior and an unbreakable spirit, Meleys inspires all of us. Meleys is up to date on all her vaccinations and is spayed–ready to start her new chapter with the perfect family. She’s the ideal mix of sweet, playful, and full of personality—just the kind of pup you’d want by your side. If you’re looking for a strong, loving, and resilient girl, Meleys is the perfect fit. She’s ready to be your best friend!
