About Marshmallow

Marshmallow has a knack for winning over other pups, even if it takes her some time to trust people. She thrives when she has a canine companion to run, wrestle, and play with—backyard parkour is her thing. After a good romp, she’ll sprawl out on a cozy blanket and soak up the sun. Marshmallow is both crate and house trained, rarely makes a sound, and has a mischievous streak when following her nose. She’s well suited for a quieter home where folks are patient and willing to let her come out of her shell in her own time. At just 25 lbs, she keeps a manageable size but delivers plenty of personality. Marshmallow gets along well with dogs and could be the missing piece for a home ready to let her set the pace. Your new best friend is just one click away.
