Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Hi I am Marble! My birthday is November 13, 2019.  My foster home is located in Collin/Denton county. I weigh about 60lbs and knee high tall. I am looking for my forever home. My owner had to surrender me so they could get medical care out of state and now they are not coming back. I am a super happy, sweet and fun loving girl. I love being with my people. I am eager please and want to do my best. I listen very well also.  I love snuggling with you in bed and on the couch.  I have lots of energy so I need a home that will give me a lot of attention and exercise. I enjoy playing with balls and stuffed animals. I am a super vocal girl who makes a lot of different sounds. My foster mom says that I purr, coo and even sound like Chewbacca from Star Wars sometimes.  I am crate trained, mostly house trained and love riding in the car. I eat Purina One dog food and love dog treats and chew toys. I do okay with the cats in my foster home but I am not left unsupervised with them, my foster mom crates me when she is not home. I do well with other dogs after I am properly introduced to them. I get very excited when I see a new dog and can overwhelm them with my energy so I need to be introduced slowly and while being supervised. I love playing with the other dogs in my foster home. My foster mom says I will be fine as an only dog also. I have cats in my foster home but I am not left unsupervised with them. I would probably do better in a home without cats. I would love to be showered with attention and be the love of your life. Please consider adopting me. I promise I will be a loving and loyal companion to you. If you are considering adopting two dogs. please consider adopting me with my best friend, Sadie.

UPDATE: Melodie now has four little brothers and one little sister. She plays very gently with them and they love her! She has her shots and has been microchipped and spayed. This puppy and her pregnant mama were dumped close to my house two weeks ago. She is super sweet and playful and has not shown any aggression. She is so lovable and craves attention and loves belly rubs. She does bark at my barn cats.
