My story

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

Someone dumped a litter of puppies. I tried to keep him and I have done so since 2017 . I've gotten divorced now and I have to work 2 jobs. I no longer can spend any quality time with him. He is mostly in the cage. It saddens me but I would love for him to go to someone that would love and take good care of him. We named him Mellow because he has a very timid personality. He plays well with kids and other small dogs. He is kind of afraid of big dogs. He loves to cuddle. Very sweet dog. Crate trained and house trained. He's used to being in the house or a fenced yard. He doesn't take a lot of walks but he does enjoy them.
