About Mel
Status: Adopted! Adoption Fee: 200.00 Species: Dog Rescue ID: TX122809 General Color: Fawn	Reaction to New People: Friendly

My name is Mel and I am a BIG Beautiful Mastiff. At 150 lbs my foster Mom calls me her “gentle giant.’ I came from Texas from a nice family that had to give me up because of a personal crisis and went to live with their friend until GPMR took me in. My foster Mom picked me up and I liked the ride home and am enjoying my foster home. I have a new best friend Rylee who is a Jack Russell. Rylee and I get along well and I even have made friends with the older dogs Randee and Amber. I've met some kitties too but I don't really know what they are so I just ignore them.

I enjoy long walks and behave well on a leash. I try to remember not to pull Mom. I will come when called, am crate trained, and potty trained. Mom has young grandchildren who are great. I’m too big for them to play with, but I don’t push or knock them down. I really think older kids would be great fun as I like to play. However, I do have to admit, my favorite thing to do is nap. Okay. I know. Life is too short to sleep away. But, Hey, sometimes you just need to “catch 5”.

I am about 4 1/2 years old. I was recently treated for an ear infection and heartworms but I am doing well. When I was younger, I had severe kidney stones, so I had to have a special surgery to allow me to pass them. You would never know it though as I am completely housebroken!

I was recently diagnosed with IBD, Irritable Bowel Disease. My vet thinks this can be controlled with diet, with medications to treat flare ups as needed. However I am such a good boy and even if I have a flare up, I never potty in the house!

If you will adopt me I promise to be you BFF (best friend forever).
