Meet Marley: At shelter
MARLEY, 3 years old, was neutered and microchipped on Thursday, our regularly-scheduled shelter clinic-day. Marley is a “weenie” mix with lots to say about life, specifically about attempts to pick him up. In other words—DO NOT TRY IT! This behavior may be because Marley has not been handled much in his previous life, (he loves being outdoors—was he an outdoor dog?) but could also be because he had bad experiences in tbe past when he was picked up. We plan to work with Marley with conditioning him to accept bending, as he does respond to positive reinforcement. We’d like to find him a home willing to work with him. He is 19 pounds! Start with an application: www.friendsofcampbellcounty.org PLEASE NOTE: This pet has been posted by Friends of Campbell County Animal Control, Rustburg, VA.
