Marnie's Story

Marnie came into the shelter as a 8 month old pup last June with an embedded collar. Six months later, she's been surrendered to the shelter and her neck has healed up just fine.<br/>I've been spending time with her since last summer, and I've gotten to know her quite well. If I could have one Christmas wish, it would be a good home or foster placement for this sweet, hilarious, affectionate, mischievous girl.<br/>Despite living in a kennel for more than half the year and almost half of her life, Marnie is a ball of pure, unbridled joy. She has a way of always, always finding some crazy-silly way to make you laugh.<br/>Marnie has probably never spent much time inside a home. Consequently, she will probably need some housetraining. However, *this girl is whip-smart* so I think she'll grasp the concept in no time.<br/>Things Marnie loves: playing with water (splashpool, chasing the hose, muddy puddles, you name it), playing fetch, tug-of-war, sticks - the bigger the better!, *treats*, other dogs that can match her energy, and anything that will get her some attention. Again, she should be easy to train. She is VERY eager to please.<br/>She is high-energy but also choc-full of love. I think she would do GREAT with a family with another dog and/or dog-savvy kids that could tire her out playing. Or maybe an active person that wants a running buddy.<br/><br/>You can read more about this dog and check out additional photos here: https://www.accgov.com/9482/Dogs<br/><br/>The adoption fees, shelter schedule, a description of the rescue and adoption process, and a list of included vetting can be found at https://athenspets.net/adoption-rescue-process.<br/><br/>This dog is available for adoption through Athens-Clarke County Animal Services, located at 125 Buddy Christian Way, Athens, GA.
