Marnie - Whippet and Terrier Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

Hi there, Im Marnie, a pretty black 1-year-old, 24.8 lb Whippet mix, tall, lean, all legs, saved from a kill shelter in Port Lavaca, Texas. Thankfully, someone reached out to 4 Little Paws Rescue just before my euthanasia date since the shelter was closing for remodeling, and all the dogs were set to "go." Now, safe and sound in a foster home in San Antonio, I am getting ready for adoption, spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, healthy, and happy, and looking forward to being someone's forever dog!

My foster mom says Im a very sweet girl, a little reserved at first, but then I quickly become your very best friend. Yep, Im a bit of a velcro dog, in love with being loved, following you from room to room, in your lap when you sit down, and perfectly happy sharing kisses. Im playful with other dogs, and will invite a dog to play chase by taking their toy and then running around the yard with it... and I can run like the wind! I can also fit through the narrowest gaps, so be aware. I am well-behaved, not destructive, housebroken to go outdoors, and also know how to use a potty pad when needed. I am very food-motivated, eating anything offered and enjoying fruits and veggies like pumpkin, apples, carrots, sugar snap peas, and even broccoli! I love walks and car rides, fun outdoor adventures, and just snuggling beside you watching TV. Inquire about me today!
