Marwin (Houston, TX)

   
Marwin, a 2-year-old, 17 lb Miniature Schnauzer was rescued from a shelter. Marwin is very affectionate and eager for the role of your new sidekick.  He may be a little shy at first, but warms up quickly with snuggles & ear scratches.   He loves to play with his stuffed animals and will catch a ball as well.  He’s already very good on a leash and will help you locate any sneaky squirrels in the vicinity.  He is not reactive to bikers or joggers out on walks, but is not a fan of loud trucks (who is). He has a super silky coat and the sweetest human-like brown eyes that will make you want to cuddle him up and give him a million nicknames.  He is very adaptable and fits in quickly to a new routine.  He loves play wrestling with his foster brother and is curious to meet other dogs and cats. We are not sure if he’s good with kids, but he is very affectionate with new people and can’t wait to find his forever home to start this new chapter of his life. Sadly, he was found to have heartworms after not receiving preventative care from his previous owners. The good news is that heartworms are very treatable, especially at his young age, and our vet expects him to make a full and speedy recovery.  Ask for him when you complete your application under the Adopt tab.
