Things to Know About Maru:
- Rescued from Mississippi, Maru is happy, relaxed, and shows no signs of stress or anxiety.
- He loves meeting people and is great with visitors, neighbors, and kids, though he can get excited and sometimes greets with a flying jump spin. He’s working on calm greetings and redirects well with toys when mouthy.
- Maru enjoys romping in the yard, playing with toys, and bringing them to his humans. He balances his high energy with sweet snuggles and affection, making him a lovable, goofy companion.
- His tongue is often hanging out the side of his mouth, adding to his silly charm.
- Maru is easygoing and not overly bothered by household noises like the vacuum. He occasionally barks playfully when running the perimeter of the yard.
- He loves outdoor time and does well on a leash, meandering a bit but generally keeping pace without pulling.
- Maru is learning “sit” and responds well to guidance with treats, gradually picking up verbal cues.
- He sleeps in a 6x6 ft playpen with his bed, food, water, and toys, going in willingly and staying quiet through the night.
- Fully housetrained with no accidents, Maru goes to the bathroom promptly when outside.
- Dog-friendly: Maru loves playing with other dogs, greeting them with a play bow, and engaging in gentle play. He respects boundaries and is submissive during interactions.
- Cat-friendly: He sniffs and walks away, showing no interest.
- Maru would thrive in an active home with plenty of playtime, adventures, and a structured routine. He’d do well with kids, another playful dog, and a fenced yard or access to a dog park. He enjoys puzzle toys, snuffle mats, and activities that keep his mind engaged.
Daily Routine: Maru enjoys multiple play sessions in the yard each day, sometimes with his foster siblings. He eats two meals a day (morning and evening) and sleeps in his playpen overnight without issues. After playing in the yard, he settles in for snuggles on the couch, balancing his energy with relaxation.
