My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Marvalo was found by the owner of this rescue but it took us 3 months to be able to catch him because he was so feral. He was found around 1.5 years ago and because of all his injuries, it took a long time to be ready to adopt. Marvalo had a severe fracture to his right hind that needed to be amputated ASAP, so we ended up darting him to be able to catch, and once caught, he was brought straight to a veterinary clinic. Marvalo was suffering from not only a fractured back leg but also severe mange that caused his skin to be irritated and painful to the touch. Once his leg was amputated, we worked with healing his skin and now he is one of the best dogs we have. Marvalo LOVES other dogs, especially bigger than him, and he loves humans. Marvalo is the type of dog to laze out on the couch with you and watch TV but to also run around and play tug-of-war. Marvalo is a tri-pod and doesn't have a lot of strength in his back leg, we are working to get him stronger by water-therapy. Marvalo is ready to be your best friend.
