Meet Marley

IMPORTANT NOTE: We ONLY post our dogs on Petfinder and Adopt-A-Pet! If you see Hart-2-Heart dogs on ANY OTHER platform, it is likely a SCAM - DO NOT submit an application on that platform!** ----------- The adoption range for this dog is limited to NC, SC, VA, northern GA, DC area, southern MD and east TN. If you are interested in adopting this dog, you MUST contact [email protected] directly. There is an application process and adoption fee. ----------- Marley is a 7yr old blond Pekingese who weighs 10 pounds. Marley enjoys relaxing beside his favorite person, going for short leisurely strolls, and keeping an eye on everything happening around him. Marley gets along with other small dogs, although he is happiest simply sharing space rather than actively playing. We prefer Marley’s new family to be familiar with the Pekingese breed. Like many Pekingese, he has a charming personality and a touch of stubbornness. Marley likes to ride in the car, and he has even flown in a plane cabin with his person. While he is a mature dog, Marley enjoys exploring the yard and taking in the sights and sounds around him. He has been to an eye specialist who diagnosed his left eye with "dry eye" (KCS), which means he needs tacrolimus eye drops 2 times a day for the rest of his life. These eye drops are approximately $55/bottle and last about 8 weeks. One bottle will be included with him upon adoption. There is an application process and adoption fee. WE REQUIRE AN ALL-ADULT HOME WITH A SECURELY FENCED YARD. The secure fence must be attached to the home, 4 feet or higher with gaps with no larger than 1.5 inches. An invisible fence, enclosed patio or terrace without grass, temporary fencing, dog pens or dog lots or community shared fencing (dog park) are NOT considered secure fencing. If your fencing has "puppy pickets" (or is supplemented with garden fencing) it needs to be at least 36 inches high from the ground up AT THE LOWEST POINT. No exceptions. We are an all-volunteer organization, and in addition to saving dogs, we have other responsibilities, so we appreciate your patience and understanding during this process. Response time can take up to 5 business. Please inquire only if you are willing to come to Greensboro, NC to meet the dog after we schedule your home visit. We do not ship dogs or put them on transports. Veterinary Care: All Hart-2-Heart Rescue foster dogs are spayed/neutered, current on heartworm prevention, parvo/distemper, bordetella, and rabies vaccines, and are professionally groomed. As needed, our foster dogs have teeth cleanings, extractions, bloodwork and other diagnostic testing. Adoption Fee: $500
