I haven't posted here in a long time, and even then i didn't post very often. So reintroducing myself!
My name is Melanie. My passion in life is rescuing animals. I do rodent rescue by myself, and me and my best friend rescue dogs and rehome them. We don't have any current fosters at the moment though, too much going on. I also volunteer at a couple dog rescues. I am a small animal specialist, I work at PetSmart..when I am not there I am hanging out at home with the pets. Me and my best friend go to the dog park a lot. (Not recently..its been far too hot outside to take the dogs). Anywho, I will introduce my pets now.
