Female Dog,
Unknown Breed
Description:
AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT! IN VERMONT Meet Marla! https://youtu.be/Zkl7Pq6XLgU Marla is 4 years old, female (approx. DOB 12-5-19), 49 lbs., vetted, is or will be spayed, and microchipped. Marla has been a mama; we LOVE our mama dogs! In my current home (2 small dogs, 2 adults, rural, little alone time): • I am good with dogs my size and up. • No cats please; I like to chase them – it's fun! • I love all people; I don’t know my size and get very excited; I could accidentally knock smaller children over. • I have medium+ energy. • I am socially outgoing with my humans but I could easily with fast movements etc; I am still learning the new world. I am social with men and women. • I would do best in a home with a dog my size or larger, with proper introductions, that is okay with another higher-energy dog that likes to rough house once we get to know each other. I am confident and love to play! • I am crate trained (I tolerate it because I have to) and am potty trained; I’ll ring the bell to let you know I want to go out! • I have not been a chewer and haven’t been possessive of my food or toys. • I am currently not left alone a lot and haven’t displayed any separation anxiety. • I am a quieter girl. • I pull a little on the leash but it’s manageable; I am still learning! • I sleep in my crate at night right now because there are small dogs in the home. • I know Sit, Kennel, No, and ring my bell to go out. • I am a really sweet dog that LOVES affection and approval! I love to cuddle and once I trust my new home I will let you hold me like a baby. I am going to make a phenomenal baby for someone! • I would be okay in a rural or city home, but I do appreciate the quietness as I sometimes get scared by outside noises. • My ideal home would be with someone patient, someone without or with dogs my size or bigger for me to play with, and/or someone who will take me on long walks or runs. • I enjoy long walks and playtime with my stuffy! I like to play keep-away and when my human is done playing with me I’ll "hit the ceiling with my stuffy" game to amuse myself. I love my soft food (my humans aren’t sure why my teeth are ground down/nonexistent). • I am very receptive to the word "No" and really love to make people happy! I am a great dog and very loving towards people! If you are interested in adopting Marla please fill out an Application at www.Passion-4-Paws.org (please make sure you have the Vermont site not CT) - thanks! Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out her Facebook page (and "Like" us while you're there)! Disclosure: Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue. Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance! Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed. Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.
