Description At 61 lbs, Melon is a relatively big boy but much more accurately, he's a big teddy bear. One of the things I noticed right away about Melon is his cute curly tail. It made me wonder what his "mix" is. Melon walks really well on the leash, never pulling and always a gentlemen. When I sat down on the park bench to give Melon some TLC and a treat, he responded with a big hug! I laughed so hard and he seemed to smile in return. The smile in his photo certainly shows how affectionate and sweet Melon is (Is the sweet part why they named him Melon? I think so!). As an added bonus, Melon seems to be housetrained, going outside as soon as he had the opportunity. Melon was not happy to go back in his pen after our walk and no wonder. This happy go lucky guy is a true "people dog" who wants to share his company and receive attention in return. Won't you come meet Melon today and go home with your new forever friend?
