My story

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

Meet Melba Moose: Your Perfect Family Companion!

Are you searching for a fun, loyal companion who's as ready for outdoor adventures as she is for cozying up on the couch? Look no further than Melba Moose, a sweet and lovable female pitbull who's ready to join a forever family!

About Melba
Melba is a well-mannered, house-trained, and crate-trained dog, making her an easy addition to any household. At approximately 2-4 years old, she's the perfect blend of youthful energy and a calm demeanor. Melba is fantastic with children-she's currently living with two kids aged 6 and 8 and has interacted with younger children as well. She's gentle, patient, and loves to play, making her an ideal family dog.

Training and Personality
When Melba first arrived at her foster home, she didn't know any commands. Thanks to her foster family's efforts, she now knows sit, come, and her own name! With her intelligent nature, she's picking up new skills quickly and will continue to thrive with consistent training. Melba is a dog who loves to be active outdoors, but she's also a total couch potato who loves to relax with her family. She does love her chew toys as well.

Her Ideal Home
Melba adores people, but she does need to be the only dog in the household. She enjoys being the center of attention and will flourish in a home where she can get plenty of love and care.

Why Adopt Melba?
If you're looking for a dog that's great with kids, loves to play outside, and can snuggle up inside, Melba is the one for you. She's a joyful, loyal, and loving companion who is house and crate trained, and ready for her next adventure with you!

Adopt or Foster Melba
Melba is waiting for a family who will love her unconditionally and give her a place to call home. Could that be you? Contact us today to learn more about adopting or fostering this incredible dog and make Melba Moose a part of your family!
