Melody is an expressive girl who was searching for a way to describe herself to a potential family. One night, we saw a little light on in her kennel way past bedtime and heard sounds of scribbling. The next morning, we found the following poem tucked underneath her pillow:
Me. By: Melody
I wish my life was full of song
as would my name suggest
Instead it's quiet, still and hushed
without a family blessed.
My first home was no fairytale,
my father gone, arrested
Leaving me in dire straits,
outside and flea infested.
I waited, head between my paws,
for rescue to arrive
and much to my surprise it did
and I began to thrive.
Awaiting me, a bath, good food,
a soft and fluffy bed
no longer living with a heart so filled
with fear and dread.
I'm told I am a special girl,
the company I seek
is rarely one with fur or tails
amused by toys that squeak.
I long for humans,
of any shape or size
my love of them is boundless
and forever will abide.
So, if you want a Melody
sung to you and you alone
call Twilight Tails immediately
I'm waiting by the phone.
Well. To say we were stunned is an understatement. Melody is a gorgeous 5 to 6 year-old, 60lb, thoughtful, observant, intelligent golden-toned German Shepherd who would love nothing more than to explore the world by your side. She loves to walk and is excellent on a leash. She leans in for love and makes sure to express her appreciation. She is an avid ball player, but back home, she'll happily trade her running and fetching for evenings of cuddles and snuggles. Melody gets along well with the horses, cows, goats and donkeys on the Rescue Ranch.
