About Marigold

Marigold is a delightful young female Cairn Terrier with a sweet demeanor. She and her sister Honey are a bonded pair and must be adopted together. Marigold has a unique way of sitting up like a prairie dog, making her even more endearing. Her right front leg suffered injuries as a puppy and, while she favors it, she manages to get around without much discomfort. She has a history of ear infections, but she’s a resilient little girl. Although there isn’t a set adoption fee, donations to assist with expenses are appreciated. It's important to note that adoptions are typically restricted to within New England. Each dog is spayed or neutered and up to date on vaccinations. Your new furry companion will need to see a vet shortly after adoption to ensure all is well after their transition. If you wish to foster, an application is necessary to start the process. Marigold will make a wonderful addition to any loving home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
