Shelly's Story

I&#39;ve got three legs and zero quit I&#39;m Shelly, your new best friend! Available for Foster or Adoption in California<br/><br/>Hi, I&#39;m Shelly your future sidekick, couch companion, and full-time lovebug. I may only have three legs, but don&#39;t let that fool you. I can still outrun your expectations and climb higher than your average four-legged fluffball.<br/><br/>Yep, I&#39;m a tripod. Nope, I don&#39;t let that stop me. Honestly, I don&#39;t even notice anymore.<br/><br/>I&#39;m the kind of dog who just wants to be with you. On walks, I stick close. Call my name, and I&#39;m right there. Off-leash? I&#39;ll stay by your side like we&#39;ve been bonded forever. I don&#39;t wander far, because the truth is, I&#39;m not looking for adventure, I&#39;m looking for connection.<br/><br/>Now, about that fence I haven&#39;t tried to escape, but if you&#39;ve got a chain-link setup, maybe keep an eye on me. I&#39;ve been known to climb a chair, hop on the dining table, and pull a few stunts that might surprise you. I&#39;m more agile than you think, even with just three legs! So don&#39;t underestimate me. I&#39;m clever, curious, and capable of living a full, joyful life.<br/><br/>No one knows exactly how I lost my front leg. Maybe I was hit by a car. Maybe I fell. All I know is, I&#39;ve moved on, and I&#39;m thriving.<br/><br/>I&#39;m incredibly affectionate. I love people. I love love. I love to snuggle and be close. I&#39;m gentle with toys and sweet with other dogs. I might not be a fetch champ, but I&#39;ll bring the spirit and cheer you on like it&#39;s the Olympics.<br/><br/>So here I am beautiful, loving, and a little bit magical. I&#39;m currently in California, but I&#39;m happy to travel to find my person. If you&#39;re in Illinois or nearby and looking for a kind, cuddly, incredibly resilient best friend, I think it&#39;s time we met.<br/><br/>Let&#39;s make this official tripod style.
