My story

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

Melvin is a handsome young fellow with a charming personality to match. At about one year old and just under 50 pounds he is quite playful and energetic. He would run laps around the yard all day if he could, only stopping to check in with you for a pat on the head or a rub behind the ears. He is super enthusiastic about toys, especially if they squeak, and very treat-motivated for someone who was interested in training him. Melvin is house-trained and while he is familiar with basic commands (sit, come, lay down) his skill set could absolutely be expanded with age and good practice. He is perfectly comfortable on the leash and comes right back when it’s time to go home. Melvin would make a great companion to someone with an active lifestyle; the most loyal jogging partner you’ll ever have. His smile is absolutely contagious and his big brown eyes invite true companionship!
