Marley German Shorthaired Pointer Mix Cottage Grove, WI

Marley is the sweetest girl. She loves to cuddle with you and take naps. When she first came to us she was timid and shy. The poor girl wasn't sure of anything and would scare easily. However, as the days go on she is coming out of her shell and we are seeing more of her personality.

She always wants to be with our two other GSPs and she loves playing with them. She is learning how to play ruff and wrestle with them.

She is more on the submissive side. She learns fast though and is respectful of them. When her two foster siblings are done playing they let her know and she is fine going off and laying on her bed to chew her kong.

She LOVES her kong, especially if you put some treats or peanut butter in it. She appears to be food and treat motivated so we have been using treats to work on manners / training.

She hasn't been much of a barker but occasionally she discovers her voice and then likes to let out a few barks. She makes the cutest noise when she yawns.

She is doing great on potty training. She sleeps in her kennel at night and usually goes to bed around nine. She is usually good for 6 hours and then will whine if she needs to go outside. Then she goes right back in her kennel and sleeps until 7. She is learning to stand in front of the back door when she needs to go out. She occasionally gets too busy playing and forgets and has an accident but they are becoming less and less.

She would do great in any type of home. She does great with our kids. It might take her awhile to warm up to new people but once she does she is the biggest lover. She is more confident when she is with our dogs so another dog in the home would be great!
