My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hey there, I'm Marcel, the fun-loving Boxer/Rottweiler mix on the lookout for my forever home! At 2 years old, I've got plenty of pep in my step and a whole lot of love to give.

So, let's address the elephant in the room first - the chewing. Yep, I'll admit it, I've had a bit of a history of nibbling on walls in my last home. When I'm restless I also chew around my tail and leg area. I'd do great in a home with people home often, or someone willing to work with my separation anxiety. With a little redirection and some engaging toys, I know I can channel that chewing energy into more appropriate outlets.

I am reactive toward other dogs and need to be the only dog in the home. I did live with another dog and a cat before, but it's a little different now. I grew up with those guys and knew them really

Oh, and did I mention my energy levels? Whew, they're through the roof! I love nothing more than a good romp in the park or a brisk walk around the block. Sure, I might pull a bit on the leash and chase after anything that moves, but hey, life's too short to walk slowly, am I right? With a patient and experienced owner who can keep up with my boundless energy, I know we'll make the pawfect pair.

So, if you're looking for a loyal companion who's equal parts goofy and affectionate, look no further than me, Marcel! With a little love, patience, and plenty of playtime, I know we'll make unforgettable memories together. Let's embark on this adventure called life - together!
