We’ve had the pleasure of fostering Mel a handful of times over the past few months when her primary foster has had work commitments — and every single time, she’s settled right back into our home like she never even left. 💛
Mel is such a sweet girl who LOVES to snuggle on the couch and soak up all the love. She enjoys spending time outside and has a favorite spot where she keeps watch and happily greets anyone walking by. 👀🐶
✨ She’s fully potty trained and crate trained
✨ Sleeps peacefully through the night (crate or curled up at the end of the bed)
✨ Knows her morning routine like a pro — backyard potty time, then breakfast!
✨ Rides well in the car and loves gazing out the window at the world going by 🚗💨
Mel would thrive as the only pet in the home, as she’s still working on being less reactive to other dogs. But trust us — she’s all the dog you need when it comes to love, companionship, and snuggles. 🥰
If you’re looking for a loyal, loving, couch-cuddling companion, Mel just might be your perfect match! ❤️
