Meet Melanie

Meet Melanie! This 8 year old Lab mix is full of energy! She is a very sweet girl that is looking for that forever family that is active, who can take on walks, do training and help her burn her energy! She would prefer a fenced yard where she can play ball, or a dog park to run! WE ARE EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT MELANIE COMES WITH FREE TRAINING WITH ROSIE DANE DOG TRAINING! Thanks to the Pedigree Foundation, we are able to work with the trainers at Rosie Dane Dog Training to pay for a 10 week Novice Training course once adopted. More details available upon request! If you would like to make this sweet girl a part of your family, fill out an application at www.barktownrescue.org. MELANIE'S ADOPTION FEE IS $170
