Marlan *On Trial*

*marlan is currently trialling his new home* meet big boy marlan, he is one of 4 healthy, happy puppies who were born on 10 december 2010, their mum was a german shepherd x doberman and their dad a black labrador. They were 7 days old when they were orphaned and taken to the vets to be euthanased but thanks to a fabulous vet nurse who contacted sarg’s vice president who just happened to know of a cavalier king charles spaniel who’d recently lost her own litter it was decided to give them a chance. The lovely ckc welcomed the big pups enthusiastically, taking them on without batting an eyelid and nursing them into the healthy pups they are today!! they still think of her as “mum” even though they’ve totally outgrown her, and she’s very proud and in love with her “rather different” looking brood!!

marlan is the largest of the tribe and is extremely affectionate even though he will soon be too big and heavy to pick up for cuddles! he has a beautiful face and will be a very handsome dog, looking at you with those loving eyes. From marlan’s carer:
favourite past time: eating and getting cuddles!
favourite food: anything that can be eaten!
naughtiest deed: telling lies that ewan had not fed him!
obsession: biting bare toes!
co-conspirators: indianna, brando and flynn and any dog who comes to visit!

all of the pups have lovely nature’s and get along well with their carers other dogs both big and small and are used to being handled by adults as well as children making them pretty much “bomb proof”. While in care marlan will learn the basics such as “sit” and “down” and as he’s only a young pup he will require ongoing obedience training as well as socialisation with other dogs so he grows up to have lovely manners! \ daily walks, secure fencing, bones to chew on and toys to keep marlan stimulated are also a necessity so he doesn’t get bored and up to mischief. Marlan will be a large dog once he finishes growing. Marlan would be best suited to an indoor / outdoor lifestyle with either a doggie companion to learn from or on his own but only if he won’t be left alone for long periods of time especially while he’s a pup. If you think you’ve got the time, patience and love to bring up big boy marlan then please contact sarg for an application now!!

ps: marlan will be desexed in 2 weeks time and then he can go to his forever home so please be patient!
