My story

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

Name: Marley
Breed: Pyrenees / Border Collie Mix
Age: 7 years
Gender: Male
Size: Large (50 kg)

About Marley:
Marley is a gentle giant with a heart as big as his stature. At 7 years old, this laid-back boy is the perfect mix of the Pyrenees` calm demeanour and the Border Collie’s intelligence. Marley is house-trained and loves cuddling with his people, making him a loyal and affectionate companion. While he enjoys lounging around, he still appreciates some playtime and loves a good butt rub!

Ideal Home:
Marley would do well in a home with older kids who can match his calm and steady pace. His large size and mellow personality make him a great fit for a family that values companionship over high-energy activities. While he’s friendly with other dogs, his compatibility with cats is unknown, so a cat-free home or careful introductions would be best.

Training and Skills:
Marley knows his name and basic commands like sit, paw, and down. His intelligence and friendly nature make him a joy to work with, and he’s always ready to learn more if treats are involved!

Favourites:
Loves cuddling up with his people
Enjoys a good butt rub

Dislikes:
Not a fan of being kenneled

Health Information:
Marley will be neutered in the coming weeks, up to date on vaccinations, and in good health. At 7 years old, he’s in his prime for providing calm and steady companionship.

Adoption Fee:
$495 – This includes vaccinations, microchipping, and neutering.

Additional Notes:
Marley’s friendly and laid-back personality makes him a perfect match for a home that values snuggles and companionship. He’s an excellent family dog who would enjoy a calm household with older kids or adults who appreciate his gentle nature. If you’re looking for a loyal and affectionate buddy, Marley is ready to be your new best friend!
