Marjorie, a 2-year-old pitbull/blue heeler mix, has shown remarkable resilience. Rescued while pregnant, she gave birth while in the rescue, and though her puppies have been adopted, she's still waiting for her own forever home. Despite being heartworm positive when rescued, she completed treatment in January and is now healthier and stronger than ever, though her recovery wasn't without challenges; she had to be hospitalized twice due to complications.
Marjorie is sweet and affectionate, loves cuddling, and is always ready to greet her person with full-body wiggles. While she had to rest a lot during her recovery, she's still learning how to walk on a leash outside of the backyard and can be nervous with passing cars and new noises.
She warms up to new people quickly and is learning to sit and greet rather than jump. Marjorie enjoys playing, especially de-fluffing stuffed toys, tug-o-war, and patrolling the yard for squirrels and lizards. She also loves chew sticks and licky mats.
Marjorie is intelligent and eager to please, picking up commands quickly. She knows "sit," "come," "wait," "place," and is learning "off," "lay down," and "paw." She is crate trained and housebroken.
In a fenced space, Marjorie is energetic, bounding across the area impressively. While a 6-foot fence can contain her well, she has been known to clear gates up to 4 feet. She likes to dig but stops quickly with correction and has learned not to do so in her foster yard.
Marjorie has a high prey drive and would likely not do well with cats. She is also territorial with other female dogs due to hormones from having puppies, so she would do better either as an only dog or with medium to larger males. She has shown some food, water, and toy aggression with her foster brother (a corgi) and is working on desensitization.
Marjorie would make an excellent companion for an active adult willing to spend some time helping her build confidence. She would also be a great addition to a family with older children, as she appreciates her space being respected. She's ready for a home where she can receive the love and care she deserves.
