About Melo

Melo is a joyful and playful companion who greets everyone like a long-lost friend. He walks easily on a leash and enjoys meeting new people, bouncing up for a friendly nuzzle and wag of his tail. Melo loves playtime, especially with plush toys that he proudly carries around, offering them up in exchange for treats. Though mealtime can make him a bit nervous with unfamiliar hands, he responds well to patience and space during feeding. His interactions with other dogs show that while he's initially curious and playful, he can become overwhelmed in high-energy situations. Thus, a home where he is the only dog would suit him best, along with careful introductions to other pups. If an affectionate friend who loves to say hello sounds like a perfect match for you, Melo is your guy. He is eligible for an Adoption Audition, which means you can take him home on a trial basis to see how he fits into your life! Stop by the shelter during open hours to learn more about Melo's adoption process.
