Marley
About This Dog
Marley's ideal home
Marley is a lovely three-year-old Springer Spaniel cross French Bulldog with a big personality and an even bigger zest for life. He's searching for fun, active adopters who can keep up with his adventurous side and give him the love and understanding he deserves. Marley will need to be the only pet in the home, as he can't live with other dogs, cats or small furries. He also has a chase drive towards livestock, so his new family will need to be mindful when out and about. He could happily live with secondary school-aged children. He's housetrained, travels well in the car and enjoys getting out to explore new places. Marley would love a home where someone is around for most of the day, as any time left alone will need to be introduced gradually to help him settle in confidently. Although Marley could live in a busier household, he'd prefer a quieter location. Loud noises and dogs barking can make him feel worried, so he'll need access to peaceful walking areas away from busy, dog-populated routes. A secure garden is also essential, giving him a safe space to play and relax.
Could you be Marley's perfect match?
Marley is full of energy and is a joy to spend time with. If you enjoy hiking, exploring woodland trails or heading off on long countryside walks, he'll make the perfect adventure companion. He can be enthusiastic on the lead and may pull when excited. While Marley loves being out and about, he does find other dogs worrying, particularly if they rush over to him. Giving him space and helping him feel safe around dogs will be an important part of supporting him in his new home. Food is definitely the way to Marley's heart—he loves his treats and enjoys learning. He already knows cues such as sit, stay and down, and he'd love a family who will continue teaching him new things and keeping his clever brain busy. When the adventures are over, Marley is more than happy to curl up on the sofa for lots of fuss and cuddles with his favourite people. He also enjoys playing with toys and loves a game of fetch, making him a wonderful mix of playful companion and affectionate best friend.
