Meet Marlo!  This handsome sweetheart with wonderful jowls is a whopping 110 pounds!  He was born around 01/20/2016.

Marlo really is the total package.  If you want to lounge all day, he will lounge with you.  If you want to snuggle, he will snuggle with you.  If you want to go for a walk, he will walk all day with you.  He’s a very easy going boy, just happy to be with you.  He is a very affectionate boy.  Such a love!

He walks beautifully on leash.  He almost prances while he walks, looking so proud with his tail in a high, soft curl.   He thoroughly loves his walks!

He gets along great with other dogs, and he needs a doggy companion in his forever home.  He loves to play with them, and is gentle in doing so.  He prefers playing chase rather than wrestling.  He will NOT go out in the backyard unless another dog goes out with him.  He prefers female dogs, and he is okay with male dogs.

Marlo is a goofy boy!  He’ll jump up on the bed and then roll off the bed on his back!   He’s so funny!  He also LOOOOOVES toys!  He will play with a toy or bone for hours!

He is an amazing athlete.  He can swiftly launch himself right over a six-foot fence!  His forever home needs to have a jump-proof fence (such as a wrought iron without a mid-rail for him to climb, wooden with the mid-rail facing the outside, wooden modified with jump-proof header, or eight-foot).

He rides quietly in a car; after you help him get in, he lies down contentedly. He is super smart too!  He only needs one correction and he ever makes that mistake again.

Mr. Marlo is house trained.  He is quiet, only barking to be let outside or to let you know that someone is at the door.   
He loves people.  He would be great living with seniors.  He is great with older kids; he shouldn’t be placed with smaller, young children, because he is sensitive to their quick movements, and he doesn’t like the way they tend to touch or grab him on his body.

He is well-suited for house living or apartment living, because he prefers taking walks rather than lounging in the backyard.  Even when he is out back with other dogs, he doesn’t want to be there long.

We don’t know how he is with cats, but we can find out if needed.
