Notes from Operation Pets Alive

Meet Meatball!

Meatball was rescued thanks to some caring neighbors who could no longer watch him spend his days chained up in a front yard. During the recent heat, they approached his owners, who sadly admitted they no longer wanted him.

Despite spending most of his life with very little love, attention, or proper care, Meatball has remained incredibly sweet and gentle. He doesn't seem to hold a grudge against the world—he's simply grateful for kindness and affection.

This senior gentleman deserves to know what it feels like to be part of a family, to sleep on a soft bed, and to be loved for the rest of his days.

Please consider fostering or adopting Meatball and giving him the happy ending he's waited so long for. ❤️

If you're interested in helping Meatball, please reach out. He deserves a chance to finally experience the love and comfort every dog should know.

What happens next

  1. Contact Operation Pets Alive using the button. AdoptNearby does not take applications.
  2. They will send you their application or ask a few questions about your home.
  3. Most organizations arrange a meet, sometimes a home visit, then a small adoption fee that usually covers spay or neuter and vaccines. That fee is paid to Operation Pets Alive, never to AdoptNearby.
  4. Read the dogs care guide so you arrive prepared.
