Story
Hi I’m Marjorie!
I am a very sweet, almost 85 pound lazy, comfort queen looking for my forever fam!
🐾 I am excellent on a leash, just walk very slow. I like a little loop around the block, but longer walks and hikes are hard for me, especially if it’s hot out
🚽 I have excellent potty manners. I can hold it for long hours and through the night
🚗 I ride great in the car, just might need help getting in if you have a higher vehicle
🐶🐱 I am good with dogs and cats!
🐿️ I do have a bit of a prey drive for the woodland critters. If I see a squirrel outside, I will show you speed you never thought would come out of me as I chase them!
🦴 I love all kinds of treats and chews, and take all of my treats so gently
🛋️ My signature move is lounging around the house. I also love hanging out with you in bed, but I’ll need help getting up there and will probably take up the whole space
👂 Sometimes I seem like I’m hard of hearing. If you come home and I don’t notice you right away, that might be why
☀️ I do get hot very easily, so keep that in mind with your lifestyle if you think I might be a good match for you!
🥩 I am on lamb protein. Beef did not sit well with me
I’m just the sweetest most laid-back girl looking for my person ❤️
You can still come adopt me or even join our foster program to help the humans learn all the awesome things about new dogs like me! Learn more on our website!
Hope to see you soon!
