My story

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

Meet Mellie. Mellie was given a second chance at life after being saved from a puppy mill by Animal Rescue Corps. While she is still learning to trust and navigate her new environment, Mellie’s resilient spirit is shining through. The most beautiful milestone in her journey is the return of her tail wag—a small but powerful sign that her fear is melting into hope. Mellie is looking for patient owners who will give her the time and space for her personality to come through.
