My story

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

Looking for a pup with BIG personality and even bigger potential? Meet Dog Marley—a playful, curious, high-energy puppy who’s learning what it means to be a dog! Dog Marley is deep in his “everything goes in the mouth” phase, so baby-proofing is a must. If he can reach it, he’ll probably try to eat it (yes, even that). But under all that chaos is a smart, goofy boy who already knows “sit,” is working on “down,” and sleeps through the night in his crate like a champ. Dog Marley is crate trained, mostly potty trained, and picks up new routines quickly. He does great in his crate during the day, only whining when he hears people nearby or needs a potty break. Outside the crate, he loves zooming around the yard, chasing leaves, and trying to keep up with anything that moves—cars, bikes, squirrels, you name it. Leash manners are a work in progress, but he's getting there with consistent guidance.



 



Marley is dog-selective and still learning appropriate social behavior. He enjoys playing with certain dogs but can become fearful or reactive without slow, structured introductions. He would do best as an only dog or with a very patient, balanced canine companion who won’t escalate if Dog Marley gets mouthy or snappy. This sweet pup is still figuring out boundaries and bite inhibition—he’s learning "no bite!" (which he may think is his name at this point) and needs adopters prepared for jumpy, nippy puppy behavior. But when he’s tired and calm, he becomes a total sweetheart who just wants to snuggle up and be near his person. Marley is a lovable handful who’s going to make someone laugh every day. With patience, structure, and lots of chew toys, this wild child is going to grow into an incredible companion.
