MELLY - AT SHELTER - HOUND / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Hound / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). If you are looking for a friendly girl to share your home, this brown-merle girl has everything you need. Melly and her housemate Orion were surrendered to the shelter by her human in mid-May. Melly appears to have been well brought up; she is calm, socialized, keen to hang out with people and dogs, and walks beautifully on her leash. She also enjoyed going for a run with a volunteer, so she would perhaps make a great hiking partner. Two-year old Melly is a fully grown hound/lab mix and weighs around 50lb. While she might not have fancy pedigree paperwork in her pocket, she comes with a heart full of fun and loads of potential.
