Marcus is a big, affectionate dog on the lookout for his forever family. He would thrive in a home filled with soft beds, plenty of chew toys, and ideally a secure yard where he can run and a sunroom for soaking up the sunshine. Marcus is described as a Shar Pei mix, mostly for his distinctive, smooshy face, but he's got the solid muscle of an American Bulldog and tips the scale at a sturdy 85 lbs. He's easy to love—much more handsome than photos can show. In his middle years, Marcus still enjoys bursts of play but values naptime just as much. Attention from people is high on his list, and he finds great joy in shredding toys. He's sociable with both male and female dogs, so a canine friend could be a good fit. However, Marcus does not get along with cats and requires a cat-free home. The rescue asks for a veterinarian reference and a home visit as part of the adoption process to ensure a good match. Your new best friend is just one click away.
