Marlene

Marlene came to us over a year ago after being surrendered when her owners of eight years could no longer afford her care. After a couple of months in a foster home, she found an excellent placement with an older couple and immediately bonded with the woman.<br/><br/>#ThroughThickAndThin Over the next year, Marlene remained a steadfast companion to her "Mama" through the loss of her husband and her own subsequent illness. Marlene never left her side through various treatments until she sadly passed away.<br/><br/>Marlene is fiercely devoted. She tends to bond very strongly with one woman in the household, following her around and wanting to be involved in whatever she's doing. She is the ultimate loyal little friend and companion.<br/><br/>We want to make sure Marlene's next home is her forever home. She is 9 years old and weighs around 20 lbs (though she could stand to lose a few, lol!). She has plenty of great years ahead of her, and we want to make them amazing!<br/><br/>Marlene's Quirks & Ideal Home:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> Only-Dog Household: Although she occasionally likes to play with other dogs, she can become possessive of the person she bonds with. Because of this, she would do best as the only dog in the home.<br/> <br/> <br/> Selective with Strangers: She is picky about the people she meets and usually greets visitors with a few minutes of barking until she calms down.<br/> <br/><br/><br/>Marlene deserves another chance to make a family happy with her endless affection and attention. She is very comfortable just sitting and napping by your side, but she also loves to cuddle. As a bonus, she is a master fly hunter—if she hears even a little buzz in the room, she's off to catch it! Her little doe eyes, whether begging for love or a bite of dinner, are completely irresistible.<br/><br/>If you think you can give Marlene a home for the rest of her life, please fill out an application! https://www.havendogrescue.org/adopt-1
