We've been calling her Mellie. She is house broken, she walks nice on a leash and she's crate trained while we are not home. She's an awesome snuggler and will even wrap her paws around your neck and hug you. She even hugs our big Labrador. She gets along with other dogs but I'm not sure about cats. Mellie does very well with children, even little ones. My 2 year old has even put his hands in her food bowl and she doesn't care. We had an Easter party with 5 toddlers yesterday and she loved on all of them. She loves everyone and gives lots of kisses.
