I'm good with other dogs, adults and kids. I've been potty trained so I won't have any accidents in the house and I'm perfectly comfortable being home by myself when you're away from home.

I'm an excellent copilot and enjoy car rides. I'm also crate-trained and working on learning my commands. I'm friendly with dogs, cats and people. I can be a little cautious to start, but with lots of treats and a calm environment, I do pretty well.

I'm a kind, friendly boy who enjoys going on walks. I'm a good listener and while I get a little over-excited around new dogs, my foster dad says I'm not aggressive when I see them. I'm not super into toys or fetch, but I'm definitely an expert at curling up at my human's feet for some quality time.
Marshmallow, mixed breed
Marshmallow is a sweet female mixed breed dog staying at Live Love Animal Rescue. She is vaccinated and spayed. More from Marshmallow: Read more about how to adopt Marshmallow on Petfinder.
Just like my name would suggest, I'm a squishy, fun-loving, snuggly, happy dog. I love short walks and I'm good on the leash... I love people more than other dogs, but I can coexist peacefully with other dogs with proper introductions.
