Hello, my name is Melissa. A long-time stray has made us her family! Myself, my husband, and our 2 young kids .

But we need to get her into a vet for her first check-up, and we would like to get her spayed and chipped, maybe even find out how old she is. We would also need to get dog food, a harness for her, a dog bed, dog bowls, a leash, and hopefully some toys. Seems like she loves to play, and I'd like to avoid her chewing on anything that's not hers specifically .

If we could raise more than what I set as the goal, I really want to also get her a crate for when we need to leave. I've saved this dog from being hit by many cars and a semi-truck; I wanna avoid her getting out. Please bless my family with your blessing. It was an unexpected surprise when she walked in this morning and chose us to be her new family.

Now I just want to do things right by getting her into the vet and get her licensed as soon as possible. Thank you for your prayers and blessings . Also, her new name is Shadow
