Marnie (dog)

 * ... that Marnie, a Shih Tzu dog, has received over one million Instagram followers from photos taken by her owner?
 * Reviewed: I have less than 5 DYK credits, so I'm exempt from the QPQ requirement.

 * Symbol question.svg This is nearly there. However, there are a couple of points I'd like to address. The principal one is the references to "Adopt-a-Senior-Pet Month", which feel excessively promotional to me. It's probably worthy of a mention, but the prominence and the direct quote don't seem appropriate to me. The second thing is the title. Is the dog's name "Marnie the Dog"? I see that that is her Twitter handle, but is it her name? I think it should probably be at Marnie (dog). Also, the page ought to be linked from Marnie (disambiguation).
