About MARGE

Sweet, shy and scared in the shelter environment, this sweet girl carries around her stuffy to feel comforted and safe�'�|. Marge has a heart full of sweetness, but the world hasn't always made her feel safe enough to share it. She moves carefully, watching the world with cautious eyes, unsure of what to expect. But beneath that hesitation is a dog who deeply wants to trust, who longs for kindness, and who, in the right hands, will blossom into the devoted companion she's meant to be. Though sudden noises startle her, she finds comfort in staying close to her handler, walking with quiet steps and soft eyes. She doesn't rush into new friendships-she approaches with gentle curiosity, warming up with coaxing words and patience. And when she does let down her guard, she shows glimpses of the affectionate, loyal girl hiding just beneath the surface. Marge may be timid, but she is far from distant. She has a quiet way of seeking comfort, placing her head in a trusted person's lap when she feels unsure, leaning in ever so slightly to say, 'I want to trust you.' She may not take treats or chase toys right away, but she listens. She watches. She wants to learn that people are good. What Marge needs is a home where patience is given freely, where soft voices and gentle hands remind her that she is safe. She's not looking for loud excitement-she's looking for steadiness. For a warm bed. For a person who will sit with her, walk with her, and let her discover, at her own pace, just how wonderful it feels to be loved. Could that person be you? Come meet Marge and show her that the world isn't so scary after all. Let her trust you, and in return, she will give you the most precious gift-a love built on patience, kindness, and the quiet kind of devotion that lasts a lifetime. MARGE, ID# 225957, @ 6 Yrs.
