My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Mellow is a Special Adopt: Please read bio in full.

This 1 year old Am Staff/American Bulldog mix is a friendly boy who is very smart and very trainable. We rescued him and a few other dogs from a pretty bad breeding situation, and he is a little timid as a result. Since arriving at the shelter, he's really soaked up the love he's getting from people and his confidence is increasing. Mellow will succeed fastest in a home with an experienced big dog owner; an ideal situation would be with someone who is home more often than not because he gets anxious when left alone for long periods. Mellow is looking for an adult-only home. He's a little selective with his dog friends, so as with all our adoptions, he'd need to meet your dog if you already have one. If you, or someone you know, are a big dog lover who would like to give Mellow the kind of life and love he should have had all along, come meet him. For more info you can also e-mail trainer@spca914.org.

Also note, even if approved to adopt from us, if you have a dog(s) at home they MUST meet the dog(s) you are interested in adopting from here to ensure they get along before you can officially adopt.
