Story
MegaMind is about 10 weeks old. Still a puppy. He’s adorable and adventurous. He does appear to have a larger noggin but that does not hold him back. He runs fine, plays fine, can see fine. And as his name says, he’s a plotter and schemer. MegaMind is a true cutie looking for a family who will enjoy his laid back nature.
