Mel

Adopted July 2007

Mel is a beautiful girl. She is well-mannered and a good house dog. She was an owner surrender due to time constraints and her owner going to college. Mel is a gentle spirit and really enjoys calm and quiet. Small children are fine with her, except she noticeably does not enjoy loud noise or ruckus. So, a quiet, loving, calm household would probably make Mel the happiest.
