My story

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

☀️ Meet Rayne ☀️
“Some souls were meant to be loved a little harder.”

This is Rayne—a gentle giant with a soft face, a tender heart, and a spirit quietly unraveling in the shelter. She’s been waiting, watching, hoping… for someone to see her for more than just her size or her quirks. She’s more than the dog in kennel #5. She’s a once-in-a-lifetime kind of love.

Rayne walks beautifully on a leash, with the kind of calm, grounded presence that makes you slow down and breathe. She loves to sunbathe, stretching out in warm rays like she’s trying to hold onto hope. When she gets a stuffy toy, she shreds it with glee—not out of meanness, but because it’s the one thing she gets to control in this too-small, too-loud world. Sometimes… she licks the wall. No one really knows why. Maybe it helps her feel something. Maybe it’s just Rayne being Rayne.

She doesn’t know how big she is—how her gentle eyes and clumsy cuddles can fill a room. She just knows she wants to be close. To be loved. To finally have peace.

Rayne needs a home without other pets or small children. Not because she’s “bad,” but because the world has asked too much of her for too long, and she deserves a space to just be. A place to rest. A person who gets it.

She’s not perfect. But she doesn’t need to be.
She just needs you.More information? Call Marion Area Humane Society at 740-389-6548 or email at manager@mahspets.org

More about this shelter

Marion Area Humane Society is a 501(c)(3), non-profit organization incorporated in 1967 under ORC 1717. We strive to educate, assist and protect the animals of the Marion area. Since 1986 have operated a shelter to provide a humane environment for homeless animals. In 2011 several generous donors and grants made it possible for a shelter renovation and addition of a separate intake section. MAHS operates a open-admissions shelter with a guilt and fee free surrender policy, to encourage owners who can not properly care or maintain proper living conditions for their pets to do the best thing for the pet. MAHS also provides humane investigations and a spay/neuter voucher program for Marion county.
