Meet Marvin, a sweet, happy-go-lucky Golden Retriever puppy who loves water, walks, exploring leaves, and spending time with other dogs. He is quiet, enjoys being out in public, and has plenty of love to give.

Ideal Home

Marvin would do best with a home offering lots of TLC and someone who is usually around. He is reported to do well with cats, dogs, and children under 8.

Ongoing Health

Marvin has been diagnosed with mild-to-moderate stenosis and a Grade III heart murmur. A cardiologist evaluated him with an echocardiogram and currently recommends no activity restrictions and no medication. There is no surgical intervention available for the underlying condition, which will require lifelong monitoring.

His recommended follow-up includes a limited echocardiogram at approximately 8 months and another echocardiogram at approximately 1 year. If his findings remain stable, monitoring may later be reduced to every 12–18 months. Marvin is currently doing well and does not require treatment.

Training & Support

Marvin is a great walking buddy and is very quiet. He does not love being alone in his crate, though he has improved.
