Is there room in your heart for me?
I’m Melvin, a year-old schnauzer, a neutered male weighing about 20 pounds.
I’m new here at Tri County and far too adorable to be homeless. I’m a handsome dog, housebroken and well-behaved. I’m very friendly and I would do well in a home with older children or other dogs (cats, unknown). I know how to “sit,” too. Just look at this shaggy face and head to the lobby to sign my adoption papers, OK?
I’m available for adoption at Tri-County Humane Society, a no-kill animal shelter located at 21287 Boca Rio Road in Boca Raton. The shelter is open for adoptions Tuesday through Sunday, 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Adoption fees for companion animals are $110 and up.
Animals are heartworm-tested and up-to-date on vaccinations. Included in the adoption fee is one year of free office visits to Regency Veterinary Clinic.
