My story

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

Do you have a sport or hobby that you’re REALLY into? Like, absolutely love it, have all the gear, play or do the activity at any and every opportunity? If so, sweet Marcel can relate; he thinks that tennis balls are the best thing ever invented! This sweet and playful boy absolutely loves to chase a tennis ball with his person! We can all learn from Marcel to enjoy the simple pleasures in life!

Marcel’s volunteer friends sure love him, with one sharing the following:

“I met Marcel for the first time today and he was very friendly and greeted me at his kennel door with a wagging tail. He was easy to leash and take out for a walk. On our walk he actually came across a tennis ball, which he was enthralled by, so we changed course and went back to the shelter to play in a play yard. Once in the yard he was happy as a clam as I tossed a tennis ball for him over and over. He would come over to me for snuggles between ball tosses; he is a very sweet boy!”

Marcel was brought to PACC by a member of the community who had him for three days and said that he followed commands and did well meeting strangers and kiddos.

Marcel shares his kennel with another PACC pup and has been social and tolerant when meeting other dogs in playgroup. He’d like to meet any potential furry roommates before heading home to ensure a good fit.
Marcel is hoping for a family who will include him on all their adventures! If you’re looking for a sweet and easy pup who is very easy to please (snuggles and tennis balls, please!), come meet Marcel today!
