Shelter Dog Celebrates 100 Days in Foster Care With the Ultimate Tennis Ball Party—But She’s Still Missing a Forever Home
There are dogs who perfectly fit the description of “life of the party.” One of them is Amelia, a one-year (and four months) old Pit Bull Terrier Mix. Amelia isn’t your average dog. She possesses a clownish charm that leaves people with an ear-to-ear smile once they interact with her. Amelia is such a sweet soul, a lover of adventure, a cuddling extraordinaire, and a dog who doesn’t filter her goofy side, ever. (Watch Video Below)

A few months ago, Amelia found a loving foster home, giving her a much-needed break from her kennel at Cleaveland Animal Care & Control (City Dogs Cleveland). Just recently, she clocked 100 days in her foster home, and there was no way her foster mom could let this milestone pass by without celebrating this extraordinary pup. Lucky for Amelia’s foster, it wasn’t hard deciding what would truly make Amelia the happiest girl on her 100th day in foster care — tennis balls. Amelia doesn’t just love tennis balls; she is obsessed!
(Oh, if you’ve ever wondered why many dogs, including Amelia, are fascinated by tennis balls, science shows this obsession has everything to do with the tennis ball’s color).
The Grand Surprise
To celebrate her for being the goodest girl for 100 days straight, Amelia’s foster mom got her 100 tennis balls to mark this unforgettable milestone.
A heartwarming video posted on the shelter’s TikTok account @citydogscle captures Amelia unable to contain her joy once she sees the countless tennis balls in front of her. It’s obvious that Amelia wouldn’t have it any other way, judging by how happy she looks as she fetches every tennis ball thrown to her.
Hitting the tennis ball jackpot wasn’t something Amelia expected on this day. But you know what else would take her excitement to cloud nine? Finding a forever family. Yes, sweet Amelia may be a hundred times richer in the tennis ball department. But the one thing that will make her happiness truly complete is having a family to call her own.
Please Give Amelia a Chance
While in foster care, Amelia has proven just how much of an extraordinary dog she is. Now, she is ready for the forever chapter of her life. Beyond Amelia’s silly personality is a well-mannered dog who’s potty trained, crate trained, and gets along with literally everyone, including new people and other dogs.
Amelia is the perfect companion for hiking and other outdoor adventures, thanks to her active genes. She enjoys playtime with her four-legged buddies, so that means if you have another dog (s), you, my friend, are Amelia’s dream home. Amelia simply wants to share her love for life with a family that will cherish her as much as she cherishes tennis balls. She doesn’t just desire a forever home — she deserves it.
