Hi, my name is Marvin and I think I am around 10-years old. My foster mom says that hypoallergenic and that many people will like that! I arrived in Canada on Aug 20th and have been staying with my foster family.
I have really come out of my shell since I arrived and am fitting right in and am so happy. They have two little dogs here that I like, but we aren’t playing together yet. I just need a bit more time for that. I am not sure about cats but if they didn’t pick on me, I am sure I would be fine.
This family has older teenage kids and wow do I love them! I think I would be great fit in a family that has older kids. Not sure how I would be with little ones, but for now, I think it would be best if I was in a quieter home.
One of my favourite things of all, besides eating, is going for walks!! I get super excited when I see that leash in my foster mom’s hand! I am good listener, when my family tells me to come to them, I know exactly what they are saying.
I also really love treats. I might have some tricks that my foster family hasn’t figured out yet so please feel free to try and teach me.
I haven’t had any accidents inside the house except on the first couple of days. I guess I was really nervous and wasn’t sure what was going on. But I am good now!
I can sometimes be heard barking, but not very often. There is usually a good reason, like someone at the door. I also think these little dogs like to get me going!
I have been on a few car rides and get a bit nervous. I think it is because I am not sure where we are going but I feel better when we are on our way home.
My foster family said they would love to keep me, but they want to keep fostering dogs and having three in the house would be hard to do that.
I look forward to being in my furever home but when I first meet you, I might growl, but that’s just because I am a bit afraid. Please don’t be offended by it.
