Pup of the Week 

Marvin Dog

Marvin is a sweetie! He's about 8 years old, and while he doesn't care much for walks or exercise, he's big on snuggling. Similarly, he doesn't really enjoy the company of cats but loves children and other dogs.  

 

Marvin is a dachshund and weighs 18 pounds. He can be seen by appointment. Give us a call at 310-860-0171 or send us an email or visit Bill Foundation.
