My story

Sex: MaleBreed: Pit BullEstimated Date of Birth : 04/04/2023With the squishiest softest marshmallow face ever and beautiful green eyes that will have you at hello what’s not to love about Mellow. He’s a super sweet boy who loves with his entire heart. He can be sassy and silly when he’s feeling playful and very bubbly with the people he loves and trusts. He’s a kind soul who needs a little time to warm up to strangers but once you’re in you’re part of his trusted circle. Mellow loves his canine friends and lives with several large dogs in his foster home. This sweet boy is looking for a family to give him the time he needs to feel comfortable and he promises they’ll get a lifetime companion fully devoted to them in return. We don’t know much about Mellows history or what shaped his insecurities with new people but like so many other large and medium size dogs Mellow was picked up as a stray by animal control and never claimed by his family. He waited over a month at the shelter. A month with no interest and no chance of getting out alive. But an amazing foster family noticed this sweet boy and Mellow got the break he so desperately needed. Mellow has fully embraced life in his foster home. He’s crate trained and doing well with his house training skills. He’s a cuddle bug who loves to be pet and will lay nicely on the end of the bed if you let him up. He enjoys just chilling in the house with his people and foster bestie Tango and will follow you from room to room. He also has a goofy and fun side that makes him even more endearing. He LOVES to play “tag” and will literally chase you and gets even more excited when you reciprocate the behavior and chase him. He enjoys all the stuffed toys and isn’t a toy destroyer. He’s great on leash, takes treats gently and has mastered calm quiet behavior on public outings. Basically just a good boy looking for a great family. If you can give Mellow the forever home he’s looking for get that application in he’s ready to fund his very own family to love. If you are interested in adopting a Marley's Mutts please fill out an application at http://marleysmutts.org/adoptionprocess/

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Mellow, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
