Do not be fooled by my size! I have a huge heart with overflowing love to give. If you want a loyal companion, I will be your best friend. My name is Marcus! I was born approx 2/11/20 and the most adorable Chi mix in town. My foster human doesn’t know for sure what I’m mixed with, but I think I am 50% sweetness and 50% cuteness!

I am a pleaser, and I work really hard on my house training – making sure I use puppy pads and sleep in my kennel through the night. When the weather is warmer, I will be excited to take my business outdoors. At night, I prefer your bed to my kennel; but if I must be in a kennel, I will be quickly snoring if I get all the love I need. Belly scratches from you or licking my paws (or yours!) are best before I snooze (or anytime!).

I have been through massive changes lately. After traveling more than 900 miles from a hoarder situation, I settled temporarily with my foster parents. Then 4 days later, I was neutered! Oh my! Not only that, but it seems I came to Minnesota at the wrong time – you get negative degrees here!?! Don’t worry, cuddle with me and I’ll be fine.

With all of the exciting changes I’ve been through, please be patient with me. I pawmise I will walk with you when the warmer weather comes. I also pawmise that when my brain is no longer foggy from the whirlwind of changes I went through, I will focus on sit, stay, come, down, and any other command a good boy should learn! Can you pawmise me two things? Will you play with me, and since I have to be in my e-donut for another few days, will you let me lick you?

Is your home quiet? Can I snuggle with you regularly? I’m looking for a human to love unconditionally because I’ve had a rough start to this big, crazy world. Despite this rough start, I’m not a barker, and I’m not a chewer (except for my favorite snacks!). My ideal day is to spend lots of time snuggling and being with my forever person, snoozing, and following my human around the house. Because my forever person will be my life, I would love it if you could be home a lot or take me with you if you go out. I’ll be a cool side-kick on all of your adventures!
