Meet MEL

Name: Mel Sex: Male Estimated Age: About 10 weeks old (as of 2/7/25) Best Guess for Breed: Terrier Mix Weight: About 6 lbs (as of 2/7/25) Lives With: Dogs, cats and people! Housebroken? Not yet- he’s just a puppy and started working on his potty training! Story: Mel was rescued from a shelter in Puerto Rico with his brother. We are so happy to have them safe and sound in a foster home in the DC area now. Mel is a happy sweetie who loves people and gets along great with other dogs and puppies. He knows just how to get comfortable up on the couch with his humans, and will love to join you on walks and trots around the neighborhood. Mel is just looking for someone to be his new best furend and we know that he will repay them with endless amounts of love and tail wags. Like all dogs, Mel will need an adopter who is committed to setting him up for success by enrolling in obedience training and exercising him both mentally and physically. He will also need love, patience, and socialization in order to thrive! The fee to adopt Mel is $450. That covers the cost of all his vaccines, the collar he’s wearing, his transport to DC and his care in his foster home. He’s up to date on all age appropriate vaccines. Mel has been seen by a shelter vet and was given a clean bill of health. If you think that Mel might be your perfect match, apply today!
