My story

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

Sweet Melva is looking to find a home to spend her golden years. Despite her age, she gets around well and enjoys going on short walks to put her nose to work! According to her foster, she does great on leash and just loves to sniff around, even with other dogs walking past.

Melva enjoys a low-key lifestyle, and is very happy to lounge about with her people and nap on the couch. She’s house trained and happy to meet new people. Melva likes going on car rides, and will usually settle and relax in the back.

We look forward to helping to match you with your new best friend and supporting you throughout the adoption process. AWS regularly cares for and houses dogs, cats, birds, rabbits and small animals.

All adoptions are on a first come, first served basis.
