Hey, friend! Marvel here.
I live for the wrestling, sure, but honestly my favorite part is when the chaos ends and I can just exist next to you, completely unbothered.
Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.
I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
Born and (almost) raised right here in Oakland.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
If all goes well, I could be curled up with my new pack by Halloween — maybe yours, whether you adopt me or just help me get noticed.
Either way, thank you for seeing me today. That part mattered more than you know. — Marvel

About Marvel
Marvel is a 7-month-old, 42-pound shepherd/pittie mix who loves playing, exploring, training, and cuddling. She's especially enthusiastic about other dogs and loves a good wrestling session, but she also has a wonderful ability to settle. Once the excitement wears off, she's happy to relax alongside her people and canine friends. Marvel is smart, treat-motivated, and eager to learn. She already knows "sit" and is making good progress with house and crate training. Like many young dogs, she's still learning her manners and may bark, jump up, or offer gentle puppy nips when excited. She's easily redirected and is learning that hands aren't toys. She's doing very well with the resident dog in her foster home, responding appropriately to corrections and transitioning easily from play to relaxation. She's also spent time around cats and is learning to respect their boundaries with supervision. Marvel will thrive with an active adopter ready to provide plenty of exercise, enrichment, play, and positive-reinforcement training. She's a bright, affectionate, dog-social puppy with so much potential!
