UPDATE: Marvin has recently joined the cell dog program.  During this program he will be trained by selected inmates who will be overseen by a professional dog trainer. He will attend classes to learn more about house training, basic obedience and some fun tricks too! Marvin can be visited and even adopted while he is in the Cell Dog program.

Hi! My name is Marvin and when I arrived at the pound I was a very frightened feral puppy but the rescue took me and worked with me and now I am just your normal friendly pup. I get along very well with other dogs and cats too. I have learned that people are really OK also. I am about 6 - 7 months old and weigh about 40 pounds. Although I may grow a little more it probably won't be much so I will be a nice medium size dog. I am a calm gentle boy that should fit into most any household. I do chew leashes though so I will need a fenced yard rather than a tie out. Hope I sound like the kind of guy you are looking for. If so please fill out the application below. Love Marvin
