Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Melbourne, Florida

Maddox is looking for a foster to adopt home where he can continue to grow, learn, and settle into the amazing dog we know he can be.

This boy is:

* 2 years old
* Crate trained
* Friendly and affectionate
* Responds to his name and is learning boundaries
* The more confident and calmer of the pair
* Starting to enjoy playing and interacting more each day

Like many dogs coming out of stressful situations, Maddox is still decompressing. He has some puppy like behavior (okay… maybe a little “bratty” at times 😅)especially when it comes to:

* Testing boundaries
* Sneaking off to explore
* Being a bit of an escape artist (he’s smart and determined!)

He does best with:

* A secure fenced in yard
* Structure and routine
* An active home that can match his energy while continuing training

Maddox is dog friendly but can sometimes try to be a little bossy, especially when feeding off other dogs’ energy. With guidance, he continues to improve every day.

✨ He was just neutered yesterday so once he’s fully settled, we expect his energy and behaviors to balance out even more.

If you’re looking for a fun, smart, and loving dog who just needs a little guidance and consistency.. Maddox could be your guy!

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
