MELIA - See Video Shepherd Mix Marietta, GA

Our hearts hurt for Melia. Her owner has become ill and can no longer take care of her. She arrived to the shelter on 3/10. Melia is 8 years young and weighs 97 pounds. She is a big girl but her heart matches her size. She knows to sit and shake when asked. It is reported she is good with other dogs and is house trained. She is good with children however due to her size the children should be older. Melia does like to chase cats. It just isn't fair that she should spend her golden years in a shelter. Do you have a heart for a mature lady? Ask for ID# 654183 Run 24. She is spayed and micro-chipped and tested negative for heartworms.
