Melvin's Story

Melvin is a young beagle mix who we are learning more about every day! He recently went on a home day trip and we learned he is good with kids and would probably do well with another dog and could coexist with cats! He was in the home for approximately 6 hours with no potty accidents. He is a dream pup - another head-scratcher as to why he is in a shelter; but he won't be for long. He'd make someone a fabulous family pet!
