About Marshall

The short version: adventure-ready outside, supreme couch potato inside, and a burrito-style cuddler through and through.

Marshall is a perfect mix of merry and mellow. Right now he's sharing his adventures with a dog friend while he hangs out in his foster home awaiting to meet his forever family.

This ruggedly handsome boy loves an adventure, and still has the energy for it! He lives for car rides, walks, hikes, and has even been brave enough to get into some water play. Once back at home, Marshy morphs back into a burrito-style cuddler. His tiny little snorts as he noses himself into his blankies will let you know that he's about to settle in for a solid nap.

"As a mature guy, his indoor manners are excellent, of course. He's house trained and crate trained, and his level of interaction with his people is very high — he just seems to understand exactly what's expected."

And when Marshy needs to go outside, he'll tell you — no guessing, no mystery. He's clear about his needs, and that's one of the many things that makes him such an easy roommate.

Marshall is advocated by his friends at ClassicCaninesATX, and he's listed at Austin Animal Center under ID #11056. If he sounds like your kind of guy, scroll down to say hi.

What Marshall Loves

A few of his favorite things.

Walks & Hikes

Great on a harness that fits. Loves new smells and adventures.

Car Rides

Happy copilot — bring him along for the errands.

Splashing In The Pool!

...or maybe just on the edge sometimes.

Couch Time

Supreme couch potato with a talent for blending in to blankets.

Being Patient And Vocal

Marshall knows "Down. Stay. Ok!" when it's time to eat. And he will let you know when he needs something - usually a potty break or some loving.

Eating Alone

While Marshy will not bite, he does prefer to be a solo diner. Treats with friends are OK though!

Putting Himself To Bed

Can't find Marshall? He tucked himself into his crate.

His People

Highly engaged with his humans - a proper velcro boy when invited.
