About Monica
Meet Monica. She is about 8 years old and has come a long way from her difficult past. Monica was rescued from a traumatic hoarding situation, where she spent much of her life confined and simply surviving without the love that every dog deserves. Now, she is slowly discovering what freedom and safety feel like. Because of her background, Monica needs a special adopter who can provide patience and understanding as she learns to trust. She won't settle in overnight, but for the right person, her healing journey will be incredibly meaningful. Monica is a flight risk, so a secure fence is essential for her safety. Given her history, she would thrive as the only dog in a calm home, allowing her to build confidence without added stress. Additionally, Monica is heartworm positive, but don't worry—associated treatment costs will be covered. She deserves a home filled with grace and love, where someone can truly see her heart and offer her the second chance she has always wanted. If you have a secure yard and a kind heart ready to embrace a special dog, Monica could be the perfect match for you. Click apply to start the adoption process.
