What WeRescue Scout knows about CARMELO
Carmelo is a sweet, easygoing senior dog who thrives on affection and gentle play. He’d do best in a calm home with older kids (14+) and other pets, especially smaller dogs, where he can enjoy walks, cuddles, and durable toys.
- Needs durable, indestructible toys due to playful chewing habits.

About CARMELO
Dumb Friends League
ShelterWhen our organization was founded in 1910, it was named after a London, England, animal welfare group called Our Dumb Friends League. In those days, the term dumb was widely used to refer to animals because they lacked the power of human speech. Today, the Dumb Friends League, headquartered in Denver, is the largest community-based animal welfare organization in the Rocky Mountain region—providing a strong and steadfast voice for those who cannot speak for themselves.
As part of a compassionate community, we:
Rescue sick, injured and neglected animals
Investigate cases of neglect and mistreatment
Provide shelter, veterinary care, and behavior and training programs to homeless companion animals and horses
Adopt homeless pets and horses to new homes
Reduce pet overpopulation through mobile spay and neuter projects in underserved areas
Offer learning opportunities for the public to keep more pets in homes
Educate children and adults about animals and their needs.
