My story

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


Meet Marly – The Sweet & Cautious Malinois Mix

Marly is a 1-year-and-4-month-old Belgian Malinois mix who came in with her brother, Mango. She’s currently part of our Shy Dog Program, gaining confidence every day, and learning to navigate unfamiliar environments and new people at her own pace. This smart girl already knows sit, stay, leave it, and come, and walks well on leash — though she can get spooked sometimes. Marly is head-shy and nervous around things being thrown, even toys, so she does best with gentle, calm guidance.

Once she feels safe, Marly’s affection and loyalty shine. She’s eager to connect, learn, and build trust with a patient, loving person who will help her blossom. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, sensitive, and intelligent companion to grow with, Marly is ready to meet you — she just needs a calm hand and a big heart.
