Needs special attention, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Marissa is 11 years old & 6 pounds. She’s a sweet, affectionate, special needs dog, but she is not hard to take care of. One has to watch out for her safety because she is deaf. She needs drops in her eyes and supplements put in her food. Here is what she would like to say: “I used to wet a lot on the floor but I forgot why I don’t do that anymore. I need a family who is home most of the time and will stay on the bed or sofa with me to watch TV all day. I love TV, even though I sleep all the time. If my people lift me down from the bed or sofa, I have to go out right away! I always have to wet often if I am up, walking around. I used to bark too much but now I never bark. Mom helped me. Except I bark loudly and all the time when my family leaves. I am good at climbing like a mountain goat, mom says, and can get out of any tall pen or baby gate, easily. I don’t play much, but I love walking fast every morning for 30 minutes. My foster mom used to say I was terrible, but now, she says I am the perfect dog.
