Mello

My story

Meet Mello and Loca – an inseparable duo with a powerful bond and an even bigger love for life. Believed to be mother and son, Mello (5 years old) and Loca (7 years old) came to us under heartbreaking circumstances. After their owner passed away, they were left alone in their home without food or water. Thankfully, a kind-hearted neighbor stepped in to help, and eventually, they made their way to us. This bonded pair must be adopted together—they’ve been through so much and find comfort in one another's presence. Both have recently been spayed and neutered, and Loca has already had a much-needed dental procedure, with Mello scheduled for his soon. Friendly, affectionate, and full of personality, Mello and Loca are always ready for a new adventure. However, shelter life has been especially hard on Mello. He's been started on anxiety medication to help him cope, and shortly after arriving, he was also diagnosed with allergies. To stay comfortable and itch-free, Mello requires a special diet and regular medicated baths. Mello and Loka are working on their leash manners. They are extremely strong pullers but we are seeing improvement with their training everyday. They are looking for a family with the time to continue their training. What these two need now is a loving home where they can continue their journey together—exploring the world, cuddling up at night, and being cherished for the incredible dogs they are. If you’re looking for a loyal, loving pair to share your heart and home, Mello and Loca are ready to meet you.
