Meet Melman!
Melman is an absolutely adorable 2 to 4 year old Chihuahua mix weighing around 10 pounds, and this precious little guy is just as sweet as can be! He’s such a loving, affectionate, happy little boy with the most wonderful personality. Melman is truly the definition of a loyal companion, and if you’re looking for a little best friend who will happily spend his days snuggled up beside you, this handsome boy might just be your perfect match! He’s a good, good boy with so much love to give, and we cannot wait to find him a family of his very own.
Melman is an absolute LOVEBUG who adores his people! Once he gets to know you, he bonds quickly and wants nothing more than to be close to you. He’s perfectly content spending his days curled up in a cozy bed, soaking up affection, and enjoying all the cuddles he can get. He does wonderfully with both men and women, although like many little dogs, he appreciates having a little time to get comfortable and realize he’s safe with someone new. Once he trusts you, you’ll have one incredibly devoted little companion! Melman has also done wonderfully with the children he’s met, including younger kids, and has shown us what a sweet, affectionate little boy he truly is.
Melman is currently in a foster home with other dogs and has done wonderfully meeting dogs of all different sizes and personalities! While he enjoys canine companionship, he definitely prefers dogs who respect his space rather than overly rambunctious puppies who constantly want to be in his face. He’s also doing great with his household manners! Melman is house trained when kept on a consistent potty schedule and will even bark to let his foster family know when he needs to go outside. He’s making wonderful progress walking on a harness and is now going outside to do his business while wearing one. He also does well in his crate, although he’d much rather be snuggled up in bed with his favorite person!
One important thing we want Melman’s future family to know is that he has a grade 3 out of 6 heart murmur. His veterinarian believes this is likely congenital, meaning it’s something he was born with rather than something that developed later in life. Thankfully, Melman is completely asymptomatic at this time, meaning he isn’t showing any signs of heart-related illness and does not currently require medication. His veterinarian is hopeful that his condition will remain stable, although there is no way to guarantee that it won’t progress in the future. We want to be transparent about this so his future family understands the importance of continued veterinary monitoring and is prepared to provide any additional care he may need down the road. For now, Melman is a happy, loving little boy who is enjoying life and doesn’t let his heart murmur slow him down!
Melman is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and will have his health certificate prior to adoption. This sweet little guy is truly going to make someone incredibly happy! He’s affectionate, loyal, gentle, wonderful with the children he’s met, and has done beautifully with other dogs. He has so much love packed into that tiny 10-pound body, and we know he’s going to become someone’s absolute best friend. Melman deserves a family who will love him unconditionally, understand his medical needs, and give him the wonderful life he deserves. If you’re looking for a sweet, snuggly, devoted little companion who will happily be your shadow and cuddle buddy, Melman might just be your perfect match!
