Story
Meet Marshmallow. This 1½-year-old Maltese is in Kansas City, MO, and looking for a foster-to-adopt home! Marshmallow loves chasing balls, going for walks, and making his people smile. He looks like a little stuffed animal, but there’s more to his story than that sweet face. His previous owners could no longer keep up with his needs. Unfamiliar people and situations were difficult for him, and he needed more support. During a three-week board and train, he became a star student and won over the trainer who is now his current foster. She saw a bright, goofy little dog with so much to offer. In her home, he’s made friends with dogs big and small, enjoyed the cats, and settled in beautifully. He’s great in his crate, walks nicely on a leash, and knows several commands. He’s potty trained, too, though he has occasionally marked indoors. We want his future family to understand his history. Marshmallow has reacted to strangers by lunging and biting, reportedly without breaking skin. Those behaviors weren’t seen during his training stay, but he still needs someone who will continue his training, respect his boundaries, and give him time to adjust. He is also muzzle trained. We recommend a home without children or with older, dog-savvy kids who can respect his space. His person needs to be comfortable managing introductions and able to provide consistent training and support. His current foster has offered follow-up training help to get his new family started. He could do well in a house or apartment, with other pets or as someone’s only dog. Now Marshmallow needs someone to share his walks, his silly moments, and his everyday life with. If you’re interested in fostering to adopt this little guy, fill out an application!
