Melanie

My story

sweet mama ready for her own family! MELANIE NEEDS A FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME!!!! Name: Melanie        Best Guess for Breed:   Rat terrier and feist mix  Best Guess for Age: 2 years as of August 2025        SEX:  Female   Approximate Weight:  24 lbs   Gets Along With:  Other dogs! We haven't seen her with cats or kids but we are happy to discuss integration techniques with any potential adopters!   Currently Living at:  South Carolina shelter; needs a foster or forever home in the DC area to get up here!   See this cutie in this video! - https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g2ssdYcdEmc   Melanie is Looking For: Her forever home! Melanie did a great job of raising her babies Maeve, Margot, Matilda, and Micah, and they're off to find their own homes. Now Melanie is seeking her own humans to lavish all that love upon - to trot alongside on those sniffy walks and adventures! Making new pup pals along and having plenty of opportunity to run and play is on her wish list along with quality kibble and a cushy dog bed too. But above all she wants to know where she belongs, to be under her own roof. In exchange she promises adoring gazes and loyal companionship for all her days. What do you say? Is Melanie the one for your home and your heart?
