Marky

Marky is an adoptable male Dutch Shepherd looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. He is fully grown and medium in size. He is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Marky may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.
