Save me from Texas! My name is Marley, and I am a pretty little Rat Terrier mix puppy, about 3.5 months old, weighing 10.5 lbs, and I was abandoned at a grooming facility with a very unfortunate case of demodex mange on my face and legs (see my “before” picture). I was more than pathetic-looking, but thankfully that didn't stop a dog rescue from taking me in, and my foster mom was the best! These days, besides being completely adorable, I am a happy girl, feeling great, and now that I am free from mange, I am having some fun playing with the other foster dogs! I am a friendly girl with gobs of playful energy, a tad shy at first, but that doesn't last long, and nothing gets me down. I love playtime with all humans, with other dogs, with dog toys, and I can make a fun game out of anything I find that looks fun to play with. I am still catching up on human affection, but I am quickly getting the idea that snuggles and kisses equal love, and reciprocating often. My foster mom says I do very well in a crate and I acclimate well. I already know how to use a potty pad, but I need one more vaccine this week before I can play outdoors... but I’m betting it's fun!! Inquire about me today.

This little guy has some serious main-character features. First, there are his ears. We are not entirely convinced Sebastian’s ears are not secretly satellite dishes. They are adorable, expressive and somehow always seem to be listening to absolutely everything. He looks like someone designed the cutest little tricolor dog possible and then added a few extra-special details just for fun. Go watch Sebastian Goodfellow | Those Ears, That Charm on YouTube and prepare to fall in love with those ears—and then discover that his personality is somehow even more lovable. https://youtu.be/ftW0Djv9xio Sebastian is approximately six years old, weighs around 22 pounds and we believe he may be a Chihuahua/Terrier mix. With rescue dogs, breed and age are always our best guesses rather than guarantees. Whatever may be in his family tree, Sebastian landed at a perfect small-medium size with an enormous amount of charm packed into him. Sebastian has a wonderful, easy confidence. He navigates new situations beautifully and meets other dogs with calm, polite social skills. He has done well with dogs his size, smaller dogs and dogs considerably larger than him. Whether the dogs around him are playing, running or simply relaxing, Sebastian is perfectly content sharing the space and going about his business. He could comfortably live with canine companions, but he does not need another dog in his home. His heart throbs for people. He was also wonderful when he met our house cat. Sebastian remained polite and composed, giving us every reason to believe he could be a good match for a home with a dog-savvy feline friend and proper introductions. One of our favorite things about Sebastian is how quickly people fall in love with him. He is friendly and deeply affectionate, but never demanding about it. He will happily snuggle up beside you when affection is available, but if you look busy, he is just as content curling up on the other side of the couch and keeping you company. He has an easy, happy presence that makes him feel at home almost immediately. Sebastian is house trained, crate trained and has been a wonderful little houseguest. He walks beautifully on leash and would make an excellent sidekick for neighborhood strolls and everyday outings. He also enjoys treats and takes them with the softest, gentlest mouth. The best thing about Sebastian is, hands down, his personality. He is lively, affectionate, a little goofy and equipped with just the right amount of spunk. He has a way of making ordinary moments more entertaining simply because he is there, whether he is trotting through the house, carrying a toy or supervising the room with those highly advanced ears. At approximately six years old, Sebastian offers a particularly lovely balance. He is happy and curious, with plenty of personality and enthusiasm, but he also knows how to settle down and enjoy a peaceful afternoon on the couch. He is confident without being over the top, affectionate without being needy and social without requiring constant entertainment. Sebastian Goodfellow is simply a really solid, all-around wonderful dog. He meets the world with good manners, a happy spirit and the kind of effortless charm that makes him easy to love. Whether he joins a home with other animals or becomes someone’s one-and-only sidekick, Sebastian is ready to fit right in. We are happy to help determine whether Sebastian could be the right match for your household. Apply to adopt Sebastian Goodfellow and come meet the little dog with the unforgettable ears and an even more lovable heart. Ready to welcome a new furry friend into your life?
