West Melbourne’s very own curious George

George the Pomeranian Chihuahua loves exploring his West Melbourne home, with owner Melanie in tow.

The pair can often be found strolling the local streets. There are few places where George is happier.

“He loves his daily walks – two if he can guilt me into giving him another one … I take him around sunset and not when it’s too hot. It’s good that it’s cooling down now,” she said.

When it comes to food, George can be a little bit picky. The Pomeranian Chihuahua loves treats, and Melanie is more than happy to cater for her furry friend.

“He likes the fresh foods. He’s a bit fussy … he likes something a bit more tasty, I guess, or if I cook him something,” Melanie said.

George and Melanie love to spend time together, and their walks keep them connected with the local community.

“Usually, I just take him around the block here … and it’s just a good way to see what’s going on. It’s nice in the city because there’s always people around,” Melanie said. •
