Marzipan's Story

https://foha.org/pet/marzipan2025/<br/><br/>ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:<br/>Hi, I'm Marzipan - but you can call me Marzie.<br/><br/>I'm a very shy girl, and it takes me a long time to feel safe around people. In fact, I've never even barked in the two months I've been in my foster home. Loud places, people, and cars scare me, so I don't go on walks where there's a lot happening. I'm much more comfortable just being at home.<br/><br/>I like other dogs and do well living with them, but I mostly keep to myself. I don't really play much yet, but I enjoy having their company nearby. Cats make me a little nervous, so I just leave them alone. I'm pretty good about being housebroken too.<br/><br/>What I really need is a quiet, patient home with a fenced yard where I can explore safely. Because I'm still so fearful, I'm considered a flight risk-if I got loose, I'd probably run. I'm a sweet girl at heart, I just have big trust issues right now. With time, kindness, and understanding, I know I'll be able to come out of my shell and show you the love I've been keeping tucked away.<br/><br/>HOW AM I WITH DOGS:<br/>I am good with dogs.<br/><br/>HOW AM I WITH CATS:<br/>I am good with cats.<br/><br/>HOW AM I WITH KIDS:<br/>I think because of how shy I am that very small kids will scare me. Gentle older kids may be ok. <br/><br/>I KNOW THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS:<br/>Not listed - still learning!<br/><br/>MY HOUSEBREAKING AND/OR CRATING:<br/>I am mostly housebroken. <br/><br/>THINGS I LIKE:<br/>Spray cheese, dogs, sniffing in the yard, being outside<br/><br/>THINGS I DISLIKE:<br/>Loud noises, too much petting<br/><br/>FOHA ADOPTION POLICIES AND PROCESS - Click Here!<br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE INCLUDES:<br/>Spay/neuter, vaccines (rabies, distemper & Bordetella), 1-month access to Petcademy for training and behavior support, slip lead leash, 1 bag starter food, 1 month flea/tick & heartworm preventatives, diagnostic testing, and additional medical procedures as recommended by our vet.
