Melvin's Story

Meet Melvin — the 70-pound lap dog with a heart of pure gold. Melvin (affectionately known as Mel) is a calm, gentle 6-year-old lab mix who’s mastered the art of being the perfect companion. He’s fully house-trained, trustworthy loose in the home, and happiest when he’s prancing around the yard or curled up beside someone he loves. Mel is fantastic with other dogs and kind with kids, making him an easy fit for many families. And while he may be a big boy, he is absolutely convinced he was born to be a lap dog — expect sweet attempts to melt right into you for maximum cuddle time. If you’re looking for a loving, steady, affectionate best friend who brings warmth to every room he enters, Melvin is ready to steal your heart.
