My story

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

ABOUT MOLLY
Grab the tissues...Molly's miraculous story is sure to melt your heart. Molly came to HAP from unimaginable circumstances after being rescued from a severe hoarding and neglect situation, where she lived 18 other dogs. When our team arrived, Molly was found with Twix candy for food. By some miracle, she had survived. Upon arrival to the shelter, Molly weighed 50 lbs., which is severely emaciated for her size. Despite the obvious trauma she endured, she didn't snap or growl, she melted into our team, as if she finally felt safe. We are very pleased to share that Molly has already gained 10 lbs. in our care! As Molly adjusted to the shelter environment, she found reassurance in her new friends and has opened up with patience!

Molly is a total sweetheart, just longing to be loved. We are currently working to help her gain back some healthy weight, which is quite the easy task since this little lady loves her snacks! Molly is super food motivated, walks well on a leash, and overall has beautiful manners. Her confidence grows day by day and we know this girl will make one loyal, loving companion! To help her open up, Molly has been enjoying our Doggy Day Out program. Here's what a few volunteers had to say about her:

"I had a lovely day with Molly. She's such a sweet, loving and well-behaved dog! We started with a walk around the neighborhood. She is very good on the leash and was such a good girl in the house. She sits and gives her paw for treats. Molly enjoyed meeting my mom, she is super affectionate. She likes giving big sloppy kisses. Molly enjoyed cuddling up on the couch to get lots of attention. Molly really loved playing fetch with a round soft toy that looks like a soccer ball. She brought it back every time. Molly ended the day with a nice long nap on my mom’s lap We had such a great day. I hope she finds a loving home soon!" - Zoe

"She is without a doubt the sweetest dog I have ever been around. I fell in love with her instantly. She was perfect is the car, perfect with my roomates, and perfect on a leash. The walk was amazing she was so well behaved and happy to sniff around! After the walk I gave her a bunch of treats and then sat on the ground with her while she napped. At first I thought she couldn't get comfortable but realized she just wanted cuddles. I hope this sweetheart gets a home soon she is absolutely amazing" - Riley

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed to help you and your family find the perfect match in a pet. When the right match is made, we strive to conduct our adoptions thoughtfully, transparently, and with the utmost respect. You can view and submit an adoption questionnaire online ahead of your visit by going to our website: humaneanimalpartners.org. A questionnaire is not required to come visit us, but we will have you fill one out if interested in meeting with our animals. We strive to make the best match possible for you and for the animals. Most of our pets can go home same-day and come vaccinated, spay/neutered, and microchipped.
