Story
Hi, I’m Marley! I’m a 10-year-old Chihuahua/Pug mix with a gentle soul, a sweet face, and a very cute set of ears. At 15 pounds, I’m the perfect lap size to tuck in beside you while we watch the world go by. That’s pretty much my speed, too— because at my age, you learn to appreciate the finer things in life like soft pets and tasty treats.
My previous family surrendered me when their circumstances changed, so I’m ready for a fresh start with someone who will appreciate what a sweet, easygoing companion I am. I can be a little shy when meeting new people, and I might bark briefly at visitors to politely announce them, but I warm up quickly and calm right down after a few minutes. When it comes to routine, I’m generally house-trained with only the occasional accident, and I’m completely reliable in my crate. I've passed all my testing with other dogs and cats! I did lose some hair due to a past flea issue; but most of it has grown back! I’m also more than happy to show off a wardrobe of snazzy sweaters in the meantime.
While I love relaxing, I do have a fun, playful streak! I enjoy chasing toys inside until I tire myself out, and I like playing fetch with a tiny ball that is the perfect size for me. A moderate amount of play and activity keeps me quiet, calm, and happy throughout the day. I’ve also recently discovered a passion for enthusiastic rock-hunting (digging), so a backyard that can handle a couple of small holes would be ideal!
I’m not looking for a complicated life—just a quiet home, a person nearby to share daily walks, and the comfort of knowing I’m home for good. If a gentle, sweet-faced little companion sounds like your kind of girl, I’d love to meet you!
