Margie

  • Female


Are you looking for a dog that can start a conversation with strangers anywhere you go? Look no further than Ms Margi - she's large & in charge (or thinks she is). Margiis likely a cross between a shepherd and basset and she has the personality of a shepherd - she's a big dog hidden in a shorter dog's body. Margi has learned a lot of positive social skills in her foster home. She came in like a bull in a china shop but learned pretty quickly from her canine (& human) roomies that she needed to take it down a notch. She's learned how to play without creating tension in the alpha girls in her pack and now plays with abandon with Lollipop (another little big girl) and a 120 lb shepherd male. They play "soccer" with a big ball in the backyard and while they haven't set up an actual "field", they are a lot of fun to watch.

Margi should fit well into most family situations. She will definitely need a firm hand because she will do whatever she can to get her way but she isn't aggressive, just persistent. She's a ton of fun and will be a great addition to nearly any family.
