Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hi everybody!!! My name is Marshmallow but my friends call me Marsh for short. I am an almost 4 year old 9 lb Maltese boy looking for that perfect home the girls at FCCR have promised me. My history is one of abuse and neglect so the girls said they will be make sure I never go thru that again. When I arrived at FCCR I was one matted mess AND I had been burned on my side purposely!!!! Thankfully the mats are now gone and the burn is being treated by an FCCR vet---I'm all good now - just need some silly ointment applied to it daily until it heals 100%---in the meantime I may need a little sweater for those 1 or 2 frosty Florida mornings LOL. I get along great with EVERYONE, love my humans to the moon and back ( yup I still trust humans despite my past ) and would prefer a home with a yard to run around in and my humans to spend lots of time with me giving me kisses and belly rubs---MY FAVORITE PASTIME . I have pretty good house manners but still could use a little potty training - although my foster mom says I am a super smart boy and catching on real quick!
