My story

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

Hi, I'm Marco! My foster family affectionately calls me "Little Man" because of my petite stature. After being left behind by my previous family, a kind lady found me. Now, I'm preparing for a fresh start with a new family! I'm a sweet 3-year-old who loves playing with my foster sister and napping in our shared bed. I’m house-trained, sleep soundly in my crate, and enjoy my meals without being picky. My crate is like my own little house, a cozy retreat. I've even mastered taking heartworm pills without the need for cheese! I'm well-behaved and don't jump on furniture. The groomer even praised me as a good boy after a bath and nail trim. I went to a trainer for a few weeks, and guess what? He's offering FREE TRAINING sessions for my new family, if they're in the DFW area. How awesome is that?

I'd love to share the couch or bed for some snuggle time. If you're looking for a loving buddy, consider applying for me, Marco! I'd thrive with a sibling but can also be your one-and-only, soaking up all the love and attention. Inside the house, I'm calm and content, especially when it's just us. Can't wait to find my forever family!

More about this rescue

DFW's FurGotten Friends provides a safe haven for stray and abandoned dogs while we search for their new furever homes. We take care of all health issues, have all shots done spay/neuter and supply love and socialization for the ones who can't speak for themselves. Through the efforts of a few we strive to save many. All this is done with the help of volunteers and donations from the people who care about the dogs the world has turned its back on.
