Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi! I’m Melba! Nice to meet you! I’m a strong gal with a bubbly personality like no other! Yeh, I’m a cutie and I know it. I’m funny too. I like to be a little rascal thinking I’m the bomb, blasting through my doggy door in zoomie mode and surprising you as you're watching tv! Then stop and calculate my next move..like jumping on you for love! Got a backyard? Love it-need it! Got kids or friends coming over? Love it! I greet with kindness so much it makes me jump on peeps, but with human leadership and redirection, I’m good. Car cruising is my FAVORITE thing! Just roll down the window so I can feel the wind and I’m a happy girl! I’ll gladly listen to your commands and sit nicely so you can ready me to go. Taking me for a walk? I’m in, but only a short one. I’m not built for endurance, but I LOVE to get out and see the neighborhood. My happy face, tongue flapping side-to-side, and my low-rider legs will get us lots of attention from smiling peeps! Got submissive/calm dogs at home? Love it! I play well with dogs, being I have a proper intro. In fact, I attend doggy day camp twice a week and play with pups all day like a pro! But be prepared, if I’m on a leash and see other doggos..I become non-stop vocal and pull. Ok, so I need a little improvement in that department. I’m working on it. I love my extra-large den (crate) open so I can chill-out, sleep whenever I want. Wanna talk to my foster to learn more about me? Please fill out an application, I can’t wait to meet you!
Melba is spayed, up to date on vaccines, and microchipped..

Foster is working with her on leash/dog socialization training
Would be good to have a male pup sibling in home or submissive dogs
