Meet the marvelous Melba, whose trademarks are not only a unique look but also a wonderfully affectionate and easygoing nature. Is Melba being grumpy in her photos? Not at all! She just has the most incredible underbite you’ve ever seen. In fact, all you need to do is smile at her and her whole body will wag.

Melba is crate trained, knows the word “stop,” and has shown gentle manners when meeting new people. She loves walks outside and will wait patiently while you put on her harness or jacket. Melba is happy to play by herself or with other dogs, both on and off leash. And while she occasionally partakes in that trademark beagle awooo, she is more often a quiet, reserved pup.

Melba is making good progress with house training, and she’s so eager to please that when you celebrate, she’ll go absolutely bonkers right along with you. When she wants a snuggle, she’ll thump her tail on the sofa to warn of incoming cuteness.

Does this funny, gentle gal sound like a good fit for your home? Apply today to meet Melba!
