Melita is a beautiful black mare born in 2005. She is a registered half Andalusian/Morgan. She has a history of laminitis and needs a very strict grass hay diet but has been sound for many years. She is rideable and is quite lovely to ride. She was adopted to a home that loved her very much but ended up coming back because she didn't adjust well to a new place or herd. She's a special and complicated lady and will need to be adopted to a local home with very specific requirements.

About Best Friends Animal Society

Best Friends is working to end the killing of dogs and cats in U.S. shelters in part by getting more pets out of shelters and into loving homes.

We’ve come a long way since the first known city reached no-kill in 1994, and now we’re closer than ever to making the entire country no-kill. Of the roughly 3,900 shelters operating in America today, 1,300 of them are not yet no-kill, but nearly half are close with 100 or fewer additional pets to be saved, and we know what to do to get them there.

Best Friends is committed to working with passionate people like you to save homeless pets through adoption, volunteering, fostering, and advocacy. In addition to our lifesaving centers around the U.S, we also founded and run the nation's largest no-kill sanctuary for companion animals.

Working together, we can save homeless pets in our communities and secure a better future for our best friends. Together, we will bring the whole country to no-kill.
