Some time ago a man called us and asked for help with three small dogs. Marilu was one of them.

Their owners had moved away and the man had promised to take care of them until they returned. But after 20 days the owners called him and said they would not come back and that his dogs could just be dumped on the street.

The kind man didn’t want to do that, but he couldn’t keep them either, so although the shelter is totally full, we picked them up and now they are staying with us.

Little Marilu is such a sweetheart and very easy to fall in love with.  She’s a kind soul who likes to be cuddled. She is great with dogs, cats and children.

She had a home, but we don’t know if she has ever lived inside a house, so a future family will have to be patient and help her learn about life in a home.

We think that Marilu can share a home with children as long as they are calm and respectful towards animals. We also believe that Marilu can live in either the countryside or the city.

She’s quite a small girl and weighs only 12 kilos and is about 4-5 years old.
