Marco Shepherd Mix Doylestown, PA

AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION! Marco is a dashing shepherd mix who was recently rescued from the dreaded urgent list at a rural county shelter. He came in as a teen pup with his sibling and somehow the brothers were overlooked for months in the crowded kennels. His time was almost up when a wonderful family saw our plea and offered to foster him and save his life.

Marco is about a year old and just under 40 lb. He is a love bug and will find any way to burrow himself into your lap. He loves to love. Marco was very timid at first but he is catching on quickly to all the new noises, objects, and people outside of shelter life. He is good with older kids and loves to play with other dogs. He is doing well walking on leash and is potty trained and crate trained.

Marco is a sweetheart who will continue to thrive with a loving forever family. If you're interested in meeting Marco, email almosthome4dogs@yahoo.com today.
