My story

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

Meet Melina, a little puppy with a big personality and an even bigger heart.

The moment you step into the puppy room, you’ll hear her. Melina’s bark is usually the first to say hello, not because she’s shy, but because she loves people and wants to make absolutely sure every visitor knows she’s there, tail wagging and ready to meet them. Playful, energetic, and full of puppy joy, this black and tan beauty is always up for attention, fun, and new adventures.

But Melina has a softer side too. In a quiet space, she transforms. Gently cradle her muzzle in your palm, stroke her fur, and tell her what a good girl she is. She will grow perfectly still, lock eyes with you, and in that moment it feels like the rest of the world fades away, just you and Melina, completely connected.

Like all puppies, Melina will thrive with guidance as she grows. She is smart, attentive, and eager to engage, which makes her a great candidate for obedience training. With experienced owners or anyone willing to invest time and love into building her obedience skills, she has all the potential to become a truly wonderful companion.

If you are looking for a puppy who can keep up with your energy but also melt your heart in the quiet moments, Melina might just be the one you have been waiting for.
