Marcy

My story

Meet Marcy, the dog who likes to play it cool, but also has a secret inner alpha ready to take charge! In her first doggie playgroup session, she was respectful and lowkey with her male play partner, like the dog equivalent of someone casually sipping a drink at the edge of the party, observing all the action. She was interested in playing but definitely not into the rowdy antics. Fast forward to her most recent session with a male playmate, and Marcy was feeling a little more bristly and cranky-almost like she was on a secret mission to hunt her playmate (seriously, she had that "I'm watching you" vibe).While she can play with some males just fine, she'd probably be too alpha to pair with another female. If you've got a confident, friendly male dog who likes a bit of gentle play, Marcy could be the perfect fit. She's got that "I do what I want" energy, but once she decides you're in her circle, she'll be a loyal, loving companion. Just be ready for a dog who knows exactly who's boss - spoiler: it's her.At 3 years old, she is just the right age to have settled into her sweet personality while still being young at heart. She has moderate energy and is easy to walk once she's outside, though she does get excited and jumps around when it's time to go out - she just can't wait for her adventure!Marcy knows sit and takes treats ever so gently, showing off her polite side. She handles herself well walking past barking dogs, with only a moderate reaction. However, this sweet angel does have a strong prey drive, so keep an eye out for squirrels, rabbits, and probably cats too - they're just a little too tempting for her to resist!One volunteer lovingly called her a "sweet angel" - and she really is. She's even been known to lean in to be carried despite her big size, just wanting to be close and loved.If you're interested in learning more about her, please reach out to our volunteer matchmakers at wcac.matchmaker@gmail.com with the subject line "Marcy 258943".She is up to date on vaccinations, flea/tick, and heartworm prevention, is microchipped, and will be spayed prior to going home. If you have dogs or cats, we recommend slow introductions over time. If you have children in your home, we recommend supervision between animals and children at all times. Primary Color: Brindle- Brown Secondary Color: White Weight: 69.5 Age: 3yrs 4mths 2wks
