About Marlo

Unfortunately my situation has changed significantly and i have to find my buddy a furever home. i just had a baby, thought i’d give it a shot for a few months but he's too much to handle with a newborn... he’s very friendly, he has loads of energy, loves to run around and play with his toys and snuggle up with you. we fostered a little version of him last year and after a careful introduction and a little getting used too, they were fine together, they became best friends and played together constantly, he’s never been around a boy dog his size though, so idk about that. We used to live in a house and they had a cat, he chased down the cat every chance he got. He’s a good watch dog, nothing will get past him, he’ll bark away if somebody is knocking at the door so you’ll for sure know if somebody is trying to get in your house. If you have a fenced in back yard he can’t be out there alone or he’ll find a way to escape and run off exploring the neighborhood! Up to date on shots, we just got his rabies updated in June of this year, and just went to the vet to get the main shots he needed as well, we have proof of all his vaccines and can give the records. he needs his anal glands expressed every 3-5 months, when we first got him the previous owner regretted to tell us this and he had an anal gland rupture less than a month after we got him, he had to stay overnight at the emergency vet and it was a big chunk of money just on his bum but the vet informed us that it wouldn’t happen again as long as he gets his glands expressed every few months. he needs a good home with somebody that will love him, only contact if you want him forever. We have had him for a little over 4 years so if you have any questions i’m sure we’ll know the answers. He’s a good boy, he’s so sweet, i just can’t handle him with everything else i have going on, it’s too much for me. he deserves more attention and love, a best friend willing to put some time into him. he’s very strong on the leash. also when we first got him he had a paw allergy, when we didn't know what was going on his paws got really bad, red and raw it was really bad, when we took him to the vet they said it was just seasonal allergies and he got put on Apoquel which worked completely and healed his paws, we ended up having to get that anytime he started excessively licking his paws because if he wasn't on that medication his paws would get horrible and red and raw, so probably very painful for him. we haven't had to get that for at least a year but i thought its worth mentioning just in case the problem ever occurs again. His birthday is June 24 2018

I had cats and he was raised around them from puppyhood, he knows lots of tricks such as roll over, spin and say please. I muzzle trained him as a puppy (for no specific reason, i think all dogs should have muzzle training) and he is crate trained as well. He is HIGHLY allergic to chicken, there cannot be chicken in his diet at all or he will break out in the worst biggest, hives you’ve ever seen, but he has taken dog benadryl before and it fixes him right up. He will not take a pill in treats or any way other than putting it in his throat and massaging it down. He is a very good, sweet boy, we currently live with my uncle who has another dog, an intact male great dane and he loves playing with him. My fiancé and I do not have children so we aren’t sure how he would be around them, however he is very strong. Leo has been exposed to grooming, nail clippers and nail grinders his whole life with zero issue and loves having his teeth brushed. His favorite toy in the world is squeaky tennis balls and playing fetch but he sucks at bringing it back. His favorite treats are anything like real meaty bones, jerky, bacon or cheese flavored especially the cheese spray for kongs, he loves that. He just got his shots so he is up to date on pretty much everything.

She's a real energetic and loving girl always happy to jump up and give anyone kisses! She's sometimes a bit too jumpy so I'm looking for anyone that doesn't mind that. I'm looking for someone who has the time and money to invest in her and give her love and attention, also preferably someone who I can keep in touch with to keep up on her (from time to time). I would like for her not to be used for any kind of fighting or for puppies so to be spayed as it's available. Last thing she does have a scar on her back from an incident with one of her brothers (both will most likely be posted here as well).
