Special dog is Sarasota



Amelie is a 5 year old, spayed Labrador Retriever mix who weighs 50 lbs. The lovely Amelie was surrendered to our shelter just two days before her fifth birthday.


The allergies of a family member made it necessary to find her another place to live. No one would take her so her owner brought her to us. Amelie has lived with at least two families. Her last family had her for two years. Amelie was named after a character in a French film. After reading the description of the movie the name makes perfect sense.


“Bursting with imagination and having seen her share of tragedy and fantasy, Amelie is not like the other girls. Amelie enjoys simple pleasures until she discovers that her goal in life is to help others.” That’s our Amelie. She is shy and a somewhat timid when she first meets you. Once she understands that you want to be her friend she really enjoys spending time with you.


Amelie loves to take long walks with you. She loves to sit under the tree and listen to the birds with you. Amelie also loves to just sit next to you and help you unwind from a long day at work. She is not a total couch potato because she does love to play with you, too! You only get to spend two hours with the character from the movie but our Amelie will be able to give you a lifetime of love if you let her.


She is housetrained. She loves to ride in the car. Amelie has lived with children over six years old and another dog. Amelie is the dog that lots of people don’t notice in the kennels. She is shy and tends to stay to the back part of her kennel instead of being up front like so many of her pals but please don’t let that discourage you. Just make sure to let your matchmaker know that you are interested in meeting her and they will be very happy to introduce you.


If you would like to meet Amelie, please stop by the HSSC at 2331 15th Street in Sarasota or call 955-4131. You can also check her out on the web at http://www.hssc.org/.
