My story

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

Marco is a 5-year-old black lab mix with the sweetest, most loyal personality. We adopted him a little over a year ago after he had already been through a lot, including time on the street and multiple rehomings through no fault of his own. Despite this, he is gentle, affectionate, and deeply bonded to his people. He loves running and exploring but is also very mellow and perfectly happy lounging on the couch. Marco does have separation anxiety and does best in a home where someone is around most of the time. He does not tolerate crates or confinement and can become distressed when left alone for long periods. He is also protective of his home and is wary of unfamiliar visitors, so he would thrive in a quiet household with few new people or with experienced owners. An ideal home would be one where someone is home often, has a large property he can explore, and/or another dog to keep him company. He is an incredibly loving dog, and we hope to find him the stable home he deserves.
