Marvel is ready to be your hero! Will you be his?

Hello! I’m Marvel, a 3.5-year-old, 68-pound Lab mix, and I’m ready to save the day with my super-sized heart and goofy charm. Like any great hero, I’ve got an origin story—rescued off the streets of TJ with my best buddy Captain. I was in ruff shape with a big puffy face and TVT, but thanks to the team at TAP, I’m 100% healthy now, no meds or special care needed. You could say I’ve had my glow-up, and now I’m ready to be your loyal sidekick.

When it comes to other dogs, I’m like the Avengers—a team player! I’m friendly, playful, and even like to groom my doggie friends. Cats? I’m curious but I don’t chase, so I could probably learn to co-exist. Kids? I haven’t been around many, but I hear I did great with the TAP campers. I’m pretty easygoing, so I’d likely be good with older kids who can handle my playful pawsonality.

I’m a goofy, medium-energy boy who loves to play fetch, go for walks, and snuggle up for belly rubs and face scratches afterward. I don’t have any villain traits and I’m not aggressive at all. If another dog barks at me, I’ll just look to you for reassurance. I’m also crate-trained and house-trained, and I don’t have any separation anxiety. I might pull on the leash a bit from excitement, but hey, even superheroes need a little training!

Why am I the hero for you? Because I’m not just a dog—I’m truly a Marvel! I’ve overcome so much, but you’d never know it from my happy, loving nature. I’m adaptable, calm, and make the perfect adventure buddy or couch companion. Plus, I rarely bark, so I’d be great in a house or apartment. Whether you need a quiet WFH sidekick or a fellow adventurer, I’m your guy. So, what do you say? Ready to team up with Marvel and take on the world together?
