About Carmelo

Carmelo, affectionately nicknamed Carmelito, is a delightful and unique dog. Each day, he greets me with a playful bow and a radiant smile, showcasing his happy demeanor. This playful boy thrives in the company of other dogs and shows submissiveness in play, always seeking acceptance and friendship. At home, he knows how to relax, balancing his playful energy with calm moments. We're working on his leash skills, but he has learned to sit beautifully, looking quite dapper while doing so. He’s crate-trained and has been accident-free indoors. Carmelo is eager for a loving home that will embrace his joyful spirit and give him the attention and playtime he craves.
