My story

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

Meet Marvel, an affectionate and charming dog eager to find his forever home. With a heart as big as his name, Marvel is a delightful companion who adores people and greets everyone with a wagging tail and a friendly demeanor. He is always ready to offer his love and companionship.

Marvel walks gracefully on a leash, making outings a relaxing experience for both of you. He has a low to medium energy level, striking the perfect balance between playful and laid-back. Whether he's enjoying a game with his favorite toys or lounging on the couch, Marvel is content and adaptable.

He loves toys and treats, and takes treats gently, showcasing his polite and well-mannered approach to interactions. Smart and eager to please, Marvel already knows how to "sit on command and is a quick learner, making him an excellent candidate for further training and mental stimulation.

This wonderful boy has also spent some time and short-term foster where they reported he was very well-mannered inside the house! He was especially helpful in the kitchen when he supervised all of the cooking.

Marvel's friendly nature ensures he's always ready to make new friends. If you're looking for a loving, intelligent, and sociable dog who will bring joy and companionship into your life, Marvel might be the perfect match for you. Come meet him and discover why he's such a lovable and wonderful addition to any family.

As always, we strongly recommend bringing any resident dogs to the shelter for a meet and greet with potential new family members to be sure it's a good match. If bringing a dog for a meet and greet, please bring proof of up to date rabies, bordetella, and DHPP vaccines.

To meet Marvel, text his foster mom Morgan at (336) 862-4645 to make an appointment.
