    Sedona AZ (October 17, 2015) 

    In-Take Date of April, 2015
    20151017_HSS_ameliaMy name is Amelia, and I am a beautiful, 2 year old, spayed female, Heeler mix breed kind of dog.  I have been at the shelter since April of this year which is a rather long time, so my Animal Care Team wants me placed in a home as soon as is possible. They are concerned for my mental wellbeing because I am getting very sad.  Don’t get me wrong, I try to smile every day, they say “attitude is everything”, but sometimes, it hits me hard in my chest that I am alone in this world. I have been here for so long and I really want a person to love. You know what I mean . . . being without a special person in your life is just lonely and sad. I have a huge heart and need to love someone. I can’t call on a cell phone or use Facebook to contact friends and family so . . . lonely is lonely.

    I am a beautiful girl who has been trained to walk on a leash/harness and truly love to walk, play ball, and love to play in the pool. I am a good swimmer. I am friendly towards other dogs but prefer to live in an only dog home. Kids are great, I just prefer the older age kids that know how to play more gently with a dog. I have heard about cats but although I don’t know much about them personally . . . I am not sure I would be a fan. I can either be taken in as a foster animal (which means temporarily until I am adopted) or I can be adopted now. Please come visit me. I could be the one for you.

    If you would like to know more about Amelia log on to our website at www.humanesocietyofsedona.org  Animal ID# 11052

    Interested in fostering for HSS? If you are currently a HSS volunteer please contact Chelsea Cohen at (928)282-4679 or if not, please log on to our website at www.humanesocietyofsedona.org and fill out a Volunteer/Foster Application.

    Also, please come by and visit the shelter and see all the other wonderful dogs and cats that are available for adoption. It is a nice facility and I am sure you will enjoy your visit. The shelter is open seven days a week from 10:00 am to 4:00 pm. Also, PetSmart in Sedona is another available location to find your special cat that needs a forever home. Please call the Humane Society of Sedona at (928)282-4679 or log on to our website @ www.humanesocietyofsedona.org

    FOSTER PARENT INFORMATION:

    Foster families are a critical resource for the HSS. Your gift of time and love helps our shelter animals who are in need of a home environment where they can stay socialized and live in a home where they get human attention and love. This is a long term commitment and we can guarantee that it will be one of the most memorable and heartfelt commitments of your life.

        That would be Adele O’Connor-Vernier, the Humane Society of Sedona’s Development & Marketing Director. Isn’t she awesome?
