About Margo

Margo is a showstopper—she's mostly white with those striking black spots over her hind legs, almost as if she’s sporting a pair of britches. Her blue eyes stand out against her pink skin, making her a real head-turner. Margo may be deaf, but she doesn’t let that slow her down. She lives for companionship and insists on being right next to her person or her dog buddy, Brody, especially when her foster is away. She’s still working on her potty training; she’s gotten used to pee pads during bad weather but with the doggie door open, she’s learning to go outside more often. Margo loves to chew on toys and will whine to be scooped up into bed—she wants to be close all the time. She’s part Pitbull and likely half Catahoula Leopard Dog, and has all the charm (and goofiness) you’d expect in a puppy. She gets along well with other dogs and with children. She’s fostered in Mount Juliet, TN, and is hoping for a forever home where she won’t be left out of the action. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
