"Hi Karen, Red has adjusted very well and we are enjoying him very much. We are going to be sending some pictures as soon as we get them taken. He loves to sit on the couch and look out the window. We got him some toys to play with and got him a leader collar for when taking him for walks. We are very glad that we got him and think he is going to do very well with us. Thanks again for introducing him to us. We will keep you updated on how he is doing." Brent and Stacey "Merry Christmas!!! We just wanted to drop a line and tell you thank you for the Christmas card. Red (Mellow Yellow) is doing wonderful. He is the most relaxed, laid back dog we have ever had. He loved the snows we had and is a big fan of eating snowballs! Since it has gotten cooler he has decided he needs to be in the middle of the bed, under the covers, most nights.(thinking about getting a bigger bed!). Our daughters, 13 and 15 yrs old have come for Christmas and of course he can't get enough attention. Hopefully in the next few weeks I will finally get his pictures to you. We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy New Year!" Best Wishes, The Phelps, Brent, Stacey and Big Red |

Mellow Yellow was a happy family pet, living the great life as a spoiled couch potato when his world came crashing... For unknown reason, he was given up to a very unsuitable home, and found himself in a difficult situation, to say the least. His new owner wanted to fight him despite that Mellow was a neutered pet, not a fighter. In order to prevent him from ending up in the pit as a bait dog, a friend of the owner took him to the shelter. The shelter staff was so impressed by this well behaved boy that they contacted us immediately. We were able to talk to the person who took him to the shelter and found more information about him. |

| Nice Head | Mellow in Yard | Sweet eyes Unlike a lot of dogs we rescue, Mellow had a great start at life. He never suffered from abuse or neglect until the last few weeks before his rescue. He has great house manners and knows how it feels to be well cared for. Being abandoned by his family was very hard on him and we hope to find him a new home ASAP. We were told that Mellow lived in a home with a 1 year old baby and a 6 year kid and was great with both of them. We were also told that he is ok with female dogs he is familiar with it, but we have not introduced him yet. We believe that a slow introduction would be best for him or he could go in a home as an only pet. He is very much a people-dog anyway. No cats please. In the doggy-pool | Freshening up Mellow is completely housebroken, perfectly crate trained, has impeccable house manners and is trained to use a "Gentle Leader" collar so he doesn't pull on the leash. He doesn't jump up on you, and is quite mellow. He has a happy-go-lucky personality and is very friendly. He is responsive and knows a few commands and tricks. He is currently fostered in an apartment where he goes on walks a few times a day. He is trained to use a "Gentle Leader" so he doesnt pull. His foster dad says that he is a great boy and no trouble at all. Mellow is a big-boned dog, a little larger than average. He has a very nice red coat and a beautiful head. Those pictures were taken the day we got him and he looks much better in person. We will do a new picture session soon. Mellow looks quite impressive and he knows it. He is outgoing and confident with everyone and very friendly. He is also a real wiggle-butt. Please consider giving Mellow a chance. This boy is used to sleep in bed with kids and be in the middle of everything with his family. We know he cant wait to put his ordeal as an homeless dog behind him and adopt a new family. Will you be the one? "Please take me home with you...."
