About Melvin

OUT OF STATE TRANSPORT IS AVAILABLE!

Melvin is such a baby—in the very best way. He has a calm, gentle, and laid-back personality, and sometimes you'll barely even know he is around. Quietly affectionate and incredibly sweet, Melvin is a true love bug at heart.

This sweet boy adores cuddling, lounging on the couch, and staying close to his person. He loves giving kisses, soaking up affection, and relaxing with a toy to chew on while he gets comfortable. He's happiest when he's right by your side, enjoying a peaceful moment together.

Melvin is fully crate trained and potty trained and does great in a home environment. He actually loves his crate and sees it as his safe space. He is on the shy side and prefers a calm, low-key household. Loud environments or overly energetic dogs can be overwhelming for him, so he would do best in a quiet home where he can feel secure and move at his own pace.

Gentle, affectionate, and full of quiet love, Melvin is the perfect companion for someone looking for a calm cuddle buddy who just wants to be loved.
