About Marty, from current family:
Hi! Do you like cuddling on the couch? Playing fetch? Going for long hikes and walks? ME TOO! My name’s Marty, and I’m pretty sure we’re gonna be besties! I’m a 40-lb 9-month old Aussie/Collie/Terrier/Basenji puppy mill rescue who loves other dogs, has had 12-weeks of puppy training, 12 weeks of puppy day care (I go every Monday to socialize with other puppy friends), UTD on all vaccinations, neutered, and microchipped! I’m basically a complete package of awesomeness, ready for a new home!
I’ve learned a lot in the last 6 months: I’m fully crate-trained, potty-trained, and I’m THE BEST at sit, stay, come, wait, and ONLY going for my food bowl or outside when I get the release words (OK GO). I’m still working on loose-leash training, and I’m really pretty good at it so far, but I need help with heel and will pull ahead if I see a big stick, another dog, or maybe a squirrel. Like all puppies, I’m still learning how to have good manners around cats (I grew up with one cat in the house, but we’re kept separate and I stay on the leash to be safe when we do hang out). Also, I LOVE TREATS! I’m totally food motivated, so training has been a breeze for me!
My favorite time outside is spent playing in the fenced yard, where I collect sticks, play with my toys, or have a nap in the sunshine. Inside, I love my squeaker toys and hanging out with the folks on the couch and watching TV. Nothing beats having my belly rubbed, and I love any and all attention that comes from being part of a pack! I think I would fit in really well with a family that loves to play and exercise with me, as I’m athletic, curious, and really attentive; my trainer tells me they think I’m pretty smart and would be really good at agility training.
If you’re ready for the goodest boy on four legs to be your new best friend, I’m your pup!Best way to contact: Phone, (608) 782-1715
