About Melissa
Meet Melissa! Melissa's journey is one of remarkable resilience and love. Abandoned in a residence in Georgia, she was left to face an uncertain future alone after her owners were evicted, and she bravely battled the deadly Parvo virus. Despite her challenges, which include being both blind and deaf, Melissa navigates the world with determination and confidence. She's developed a strong bond with those who show her kindness and patience. Sweet and affectionate, she eagerly awaits a loving family who can see beyond her special needs and appreciate the extraordinary dog she is. Melissa is ready to fill your life with loyalty and love in return for a gentle touch and a caring heart. Could you be the one to give this brave girl the happy ending she deserves? All dogs will be altered, microchipped, and receive age-appropriate vaccines before adoption. We also offer transportation options within 6 hours of NYC, so don’t let location stop you.
