Story
Meet Marco!
*Marco and Ruxin are a bonded pair and will only be adopted together.
Hello everyone, my name is Marco! I'm just over 16 pounds and one of the best-looking guys you'll ever meet! My brother Ruxin is the other best looking guy. We're almost like twins! I'm not much of a kisser, and you'll be lucky to get one kiss at a time from me. Otherwise I just lick the air near you. I can play catch with the best of them, with raquetballs only. I could care less about any other balls, and I don't really show interest in any stuffies. My favorite color is red, and my foster mom has a red sweater she puts on me to keep me warm! I'm a little more cautious than my brother, but I will still love my new people just the same once we get to know each other.
Ruxin is my bigger (not by much) bro, and we do EVERYTHING together! We've been together for all of our lives. We were born in Dec 2011, so that's a long time. We enjoy when the foster neighbor kids come over to visit, but we get a little scared about fast movements, so if there are kids in our forever home it would be best if they were 5 and up. We love going on walks together, even though we bark at dogs on our walks. Bigger dogs scare us a bit, but we do well with our foster cat sibling, who is about our size. We never had a fenced in yard in our old home, so we play well indoors, but boy oh boy, let me just say that Ruxin and I are loving chasing balls in out fenced in yard at our foster home! I never knew there could be something so joyous in this world! We are quite energetic yet and quite a bit of life and excitement to our forever family! When we are home alone, we can free roam the house, and when it's bedtime, we will sleep in a large crate together, without any fussing, but we'd also love to sleep in the big bed with the humans. Basically, we just need some humans to love us, give us some food, exercise us, and make sure we are taken care of. Maybe you are the humans for us! I'm a little more cautious than my brother, but I will still love my new people just the same once we get to know each other.

Disclaimer: It is VERY difficult even for a veterinarian to tell the exact age of a dog over two years old. From one vet to another, we can get different age estimates on the same dog and they can vary by several years. We are only making an educated guess based on a few factors like teeth, fur color, and overall body condition, but for dogs who have not been given adequate vet care and food, it can be even more difficult. Every dog is an individual, and we do our very best to age appropriately but make no guarantees as to the age of any dog in our program.
