Intelligent, loyal and loving Once he bonds with you, his true gentle and affectionate nature emerges! Marlin is happiest getting ready for his walks or cuddling on the sofa, as long as it's with you. ABOUT MARLIN: - 7 yr old, Boxer/Lab mix, medium-sized dog, 60 lbs - Marlin came to EHS as an unclaimed stray - He knows all his obedience cues and learns new ones fast - Good in the house, good in the car - Marlin is neutered, house-trained, microchipped and has core vaccinations - MARLIN'S IDEAL HOME: - A single adult or couple living in a calm, quiet home and quiet neighbourhood - A family that is willing to work through a transitional period as they build a bond and gain his trust - Direct access to a private, fenced yard so that he can have his outdoor time without having to run into other dogs or people. - No kids, no other pets in the home at least initially- Experienced owner who is prepared to invest time and energy in both helping him settle into his new home and providing the structure that he needs - Marlin can show reactivity to other dogs on a walk but he has been working with a trainer and has come a long way; in the right environment he should continue to improve and thrive. Our trainer looks forward to working with his adopters to ensure a successful transition and knowledge transfer to his new family. Marlin makes a great, faithful companion.
