“I adore dogs!”

Hi there! My name is Melissa. Currently, our family has a yellow lab and a black lab. I am ALWAYS covered in dog hair! My youngest son has remarked that dogs are my kryptonite because I find it very difficult to just walk past a dog. I typically have to stop and say hello. It would be my pleasure to walk your furry friend.

Dog Boarding in Omaha

Just like so many other cities and towns across the United States, Omaha is home to a huge community of proud dog owners and their furry friends. With a thriving dog-friendly scene, Omaha also features a number of grrr-eat animal rescue and welfare organizations that protect and save dogs in desperate need of help.

Nebraska Humane Society is one of those groups. With a mission to protect, save, and enrich the lives of animals in the local area, Nebraska Humane wants every pet to find a good home. Founded way back in 1875, it opens its doors to more than 30,000 animals in need every year.

Little White Dog Rescue may not be as large or as well-known, but it still does a great deal of important work. Founded in 2007, this all-volunteer group specializes in rescuing, rehabilitating, and rehoming small dogs. With no shelter to call its own, Little White Dog Rescue relies on a network of dedicated foster carers to give all kinds of small dogs a chance at a better life.

Speaking of chances, Muddy Paws Second Chance Rescue is another non-profit with a mission to help homeless dogs find happiness. Launched in January 2015, this no-kill organization is based in the Council Bluffs/Omaha area and works with all breeds of dogs. Entirely run by volunteers, the group focuses on keeping pets in their loving homes and is always in need of any help and support it can get.
