🌟 Meet the delightful Melanie, a gorgeous German Shepherd mix who's ready to fill a home with love and joy! This 3.5-year-old beauty weighs in at about 55 pounds and is on the lookout for her forever family. She dreams of long, sniff-filled walks, fun dog park adventures, and endless belly rubs. Can you imagine her snuggling right next to you, sharing those cozy moments? 🤗 Melanie has a heart of gold and gets along fabulously with other dogs, making her the perfect companion for playdates! While she hasn't had the pleasure of meeting children yet, potential adopters can chat about how to introduce her into a family. However, Melanie prefers to be in a home without cats—let's keep the kitty antics at bay! 😸 Now, let’s talk about a little hiccup in her health journey. This lucky girl tested positive for heartworms, but don’t fret! She has undergone treatment and is on the road to recovery—the vet assures us she can live a full, active life post-treatment with a bit of calm for the next few weeks. 🌈 The Lucky Dog team believes that every dog deserves a loving home, and Melanie is no exception! She’s eagerly waiting for someone who will see just how special she is. With a little training, she could even show off her smarts at doggy school. Let her shine and be part of your family! 🌟 👉 If you're ready to fill your home with love and laughter, make sure to apply through the Buddy App to adopt sweet Melanie! Lucky Dog Animal Rescue is dedicated to providing accurate information about their dogs, and while they can’t guarantee specific traits, they ensure that adorable Melanie is worth every moment.
