My story

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

Meet our miracle dog Amelia! "Airport" Amelia had been reported as a stray at SeaTac airport mid-December, from parking garages to the cargo plane area — somehow managing to survive completely uninjured in one of the busiest, most dangerous places imaginable, and despite many efforts to save her she remained on the loose. Thanks to James Branson of 3Retrievers (yes, the same James who recently helped us search for Greer!) she was saved. James had limited access at the airport and was looking for help, which fortunately, we had! Thanks to one of our adopters, we were able to put James in touch with the right people to get access to more areas, and James was able to trap Amelia.

Amelia was not microchipped and had no collar or ID, so she was seen at RASKC, has been released from stray hold, and is ready for her forever home! Amelia will need a patient adopter who is willing to allow for decompression while being extremely cautious as to her being a "flight" risk (Yes, pun intended!).

Amelia will be adopted with a tracking collar provided by the rescue, and will be sharing her adoption donation with James and 3Retrievers.

Amelia has been Microchipped, Spayed and Vaccinated included in her adoption donation. Amelia will be adopted to a home with a secure fenced yard of at least 6' in height.
