MARTY - TERRIER / LABRADOR RETRIEVER / MIXED (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Terrier / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). Adoption Fee: 400. Don’t let Marty’s twinkle in his eye distract you. He’s thinking of ways to get a dog treat or your sandwich! Marty is a definite foodie! His love of food and attention will help in training this sweet guy. He also enjoys sneaking a lick of water while taking a bath instead of getting washed. He sleeps like a baby in his crate during the night, but once awake, he wants to be where the action is. Marty is a social butterfly and enjoys meeting people and other pups. He's doing great with potty training and walking on a leash. His sleek, soft fur and webbed front paws are similar to a Labrador's. This handsome dude will most likely be about 40-45 lbs. Marty would love another dog friend in the household. His Mom, Star, also in rescue, is 35 lbs. and appears to be a combo of Dalmatian/Terrier/Hound. Marty’s estimated birthdate is 11/22/2025. Marty would love a fenced-in backyard for doing zoomies (running) and a household with older 8+, respectful children, if any. If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: .starfishanimalrescue/adopt/dog-adoption-application . Your application will be reviewed by our team and if it is a good fit, we will send to the foster family to set up a meet! The adoption fee of $400 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm and any other necessary medical treatment to assure a healthy new pup for your family. IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: Although we do our best to describe breed, since our pups all come from shelters we can not and will not make any guarantee on breed or size. We can tell you that they are 100% RESCUED! And that is the BEST breed! *please note that we are a foster home based rescue and we do home visits as part of the adoption process - we are unable to adopt to families who live outside of the Chicago and surrounding suburbs. Thank you for your understanding.
