Meet Marcus! This 1-year-old Terrier-Basenji blend weighs 18 lbs. Marcus is a happy, cheerful, and playful pup full of so much love to bring into an active family.
- General Behavior: Marcus is a young pooch with lots of puppy energy! He can often be found dashing around his foster dad's backyard, chasing after the hose, or engaging in a quick session of zoomies. He is quite the curious fella, and everything he comes across is new and exciting to him.
- Likes & Dislikes: This active guy loves to play, play, play all day! Whether it be with his canine or human friends, Marcus is always on the go! He enjoys playing fetch and running around outdoors, then going inside for a quality snuggle session and giving kisses.
- Training: As a young pup, Marcus is still working on his training skills, including his basic manners and leash walking. He has been introduced to housetraining, in which he does well when let out frequently. He will require a family that is patient and committed to working on his skills with him.
- Medical: Marcus is a healthy boy and will just require his monthly heartworm and flea prevention, like any other dog.
- Other Animals: Magnificent Marcus interacts well with other dogs. He has not been introduced to any cats, but due to his high energy level and desire to "run and chase," a home with cats would not be recommended.
- Children: Marcus would be best suited for a home with older children (8+) who would not easily be knocked over by this playful guy.
- Home: A single-family home with a secure fenced-in yard is required for Marcus. He has lots of energy and needs the space to run and exert it. Like any dog, he should never be left unattended, even in a securely fenced yard. He would benefit from an active family that is home throughout the day, who can provide him with the attention, training, and love that he deserves.
- Grooming: Marcus is a short-haired pup who will not require any extensive grooming. He just needs his regular baths and nail trims.
- Overall: Marcus is an avid fetch player who will make for a great running buddy and a cuddly companion.
