My name is Mello!

Mello is ready to be loved…again.  This 10 year young, 11-lb Yorkshire Terrier almost had an adoption lined up, but plans changed before anyone even got the chance to meet him. His foster mom describes him as: Energetic. Loving. Attached. He’s a confident little velcro buddy who truly believes every person on the street is just another long lost friend ready to pet him! At home, Mello is observant, affectionate, and entertaining. Park walks? He invented them. Leaf sniff-a-thons? Gold medalist. Neighborhood supervision from his window perch? That’s his unpaid community service. He also runs a very serious (but adorable) sock retrieval department around the house. He’s friendly with other dogs with a gentle, proper intro, super sweet and social around children, and while he hasn’t met cats yet, he would probably be just fine with them. City noise can feel a little overwhelming sometimes, but calm reassurance, treats, and love help him feel confident! His neuter and dental surgery are scheduled for next week, and we expect this to support his continued progress with his potty routine and house training! His ideal home is patient, calm, loving, and filled with humans who are around often, maybe work-from-home, maybe multiple people for even more cuddles, bonus points for a park or grassy walking route nearby for his daily confidence strolls and sniff adventures!
