In the shelter’s words
If you have a soft spot for a frosty-faced fella, look no further than sweet Melvin. A low to moderately active boy, Melvin loves to be with his humans and to leisurely chase squirrels in the back yard. In fact, he does all his things at the same leisurely pace. His most favorite place to be is relaxing on your feet in the evening or chewing his bone while the family watches TV. He doesn't mind other dogs and will sometimes join them in barking at the mailman or the neighbors. But mostly, he is just happy to have his humans nearby where he can keep a watchful...and leisurely....eye on them. Let's give him the happy ending he deserves - again.
