Meet Monica. At around 8 years old, she comes with a history that hasn’t been easy, but we believe her future can be bright. Monica arrived from a horrific hoarding situation, where her experience limited the joy and comfort she deserves as a dog. Now, she’s slowly learning what it means to be free, safe, and loved. Monica needs a special adopter who understands her past. Patience and kindness are essential as she learns to trust again. This is not a quick journey; she’s figuring out that the world can be gentle and that love is possible. She would thrive best as the only dog in a calm home, allowing her to decompress and build confidence without pressure. For her safety, Monica requires a secure fence as she’s a flight risk. She is also heartworm positive, and we will cover the entire treatment process. Monica deserves a nurturing environment where she can heal at her own pace, and we know that the right person will appreciate the journey of helping her flourish. If you have a calm space, a secure yard, and a heart open to helping a dog in need, Monica could be your perfect match.
