Hello New Friends!
My name is Marvelous Marlo and I’m a lover and a keeper, a little (13 pound) bichon of eight who is known for my expressive eyes and tail wagging personality. Mom says that I’m as cute as can be, sweet, happy, love to cuddle and have an easy going nature. I LOVE to go on walks and rides in the car! I’m the world’s best traveler (I’m not bragging! That’s what Mom says) and I love being a companion!
Another thing that makes me extra special is my ability to adapt. You see I’m very social and like everyone I meet. Mom said I’m a kind of social butterfly (but I’m really not a butterfly, silly Mom!) Whether it’s meeting new people on our walks and trips to the store or when friends come over (they are called company) I love being with people. You see they talk to me or pet me then I look into their eyes and presto! it’s love.
I am also a snuggler. I like to snuggle with people – and that there is nothing I would rather do that curl up in your lap and rest my head on your shoulder. Mom says that makes me irresistible. I’m also compassionate. Why when my doggy foster brother was injured I would lie down in the bed and comfort him so he would feel better.
Did I mention I’m housebroken, love to give doggy kisses and licks — and love to cuddle? Yes, that’s all true!
Mom says I also know how to do a lot of ‘useful’ things. For example, I know some commands, walk beautifully on a leash and mastered the doggy door the first day! How’s that for smart? (And how happy that makes mom too! She says I’m such a good girl.)
My very favorite thing in the world is to be with my people. Mom says I am a gentle girl, who just yearns for attention. I need somebody to give me lots of love – and I give it right back too. I’m eager to please and looking for a loving forever home.
When you meet me Mom says you will find me both merry and mellow. Please complete our application so we can meet.
Tail wags and doggy kisses,
Marvelous and Memorable Marlo



Did I mention that I LOVE to go for walks (even though I’m little I can walk for a mile and enjoy it!) and I LOVE to go for rides!? Dad says that people approach me because I’m so friendly, cute and calm! And because I’m so little (about nine pounds) you can take me anywhere!
Dad says you may have heard about my story and that I’m somewhat famous. You see, I had these ginormous bladder stones that had to be removed. They weighed more than one pound and that’s really a lot! Well I had that surgery and am happy to say I feel great now! And there is no doubt that I was a trooper through it all! The only needs I have now are to be loved and to spend lots of time with my humans.

Mom says that I’m equal parts sweet and shy, a darling little guy who just wants to be around you- in your lap, by your side, next to you in bed, on a car ride. As long as I’m with you, I’m fine. Did I mention that I LOVE the carwash – and drive-thrus? When you’re actually driving, I’m pretty calm and love to look out the closed window. At the drive-thru I sometimes growl at the men inside but listen to Mom and am obedient.
And did I mention that I love to play fetch and love my ball? Well I DO love to play with my ball – and play, and play, and play!
Dad says I’m housebroken (I even tell him when I need to go out!), learning commands (I’ve already mastered ‘sit’ and am working on others!) am friendly, smart and gentle. He says I love to give doggy kisses to everyone I meet – and that everyone who sees me comments on how gorgeous and adorable I am. Dad says I’m very good at stealing hearts (I told Dad I’m a good girl and I would never steal anything. He just smiles and pats my head.)

My BFK Aunties say that I’m attentive and adoring — and that I truly enjoy LIFE. If I’m with my doggy foster siblings, I get along with them–however being with my special person or people is more important to me.

Mom says I’m friendly (with people and pups), super smart (I learn quickly and I’m training her very well too!) and I love to go for walks. But, there is something else you need to know – I also LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to go for rides in the car. If you want to go for 10 minutes or 10 hours, that’s fine with me. You’d have to look far and wide to find a better companion than I am! (Mom says I even follow her to the car when she’s taking out the garbage as I simply want to GO!)
