More about Melissa


My Daughter, Melissa Shannon Dooley - Dunlap, loves animals, has all of her life. She once nursed a baby  Opossum whose Mother had apparently been killed,  back to health. Even had it trained to go in a litter box. She loves to fish, catch and release. She raised abandoned baby rabbits to health. She had dogs, cats, has had birds, alligators and snakes and a Iguana that used to spend a lot of time on her curtain rod. This photograph, I love, there had been a house fire, this kitten was overcome with smoke, Melissa and the fireman did CPR, or something, and brought the cat back. That is so much Melissa, helping animals.
If she sees an abandoned, hurt or homeless animal by the side of the road, she stops and picks it up. Occasionally, she will stop by, "Oh, hi Dad, love you, ah, could you watch this dog for a few days, till I find it a home?"

She is trying to get a business started, Pampered Pets, wash and groom place for dogs and cats. If you live in this area, or know someone who does, mention that to them. Or, on this site, there is an ad for her.

Incidentally, if you had not read one of my posts, today is her birthday, an email to her would be nice, from wherever you are in the world.


Thanks ..................
