Breed: German Shepherd x


Date of Birth : 05/22/2023


Eight young lives just hoping for a chance. We know most people don’t think puppies are at risk in our shelter systems but they absolutely are! This litter came into the city shelter as strays without a mom. Adorable and totally adoptable right? Well they sat for over 2 weeks with no interest. That’s right not even one puppy adopted. This is when you know there are serious problems in our rescue community. When puppies have a hard time getting adopted in the shelter system and run the risk of euthanasia….Why? Because there’s just too many of them and not enough space or adoptive families. Things are really that bad!

But these adorable guys and gals have made it out and are now calling our rescue ranch their temporary home. They are fuzzy and beyond precious. Lots of puppy antics and all the puppy breath our hearts can handle. Ranch staff are starting them on some training basics and they’re picking up tons of positive social skills. They’re ready to meet brand new families and would love a home to call their own. If you’re looking for some puppy fun get those applications in they can’t wait to meet you!


 

Here’s what you need to know about adopting a cat or dog from Marley's Mutts:

  • Each adoptable pet will be introduced on Facebook

  • Each pet will have its own profile here on the website

  • All pets will be spayed or neutered

  • All pets will be micro-chipped and shots will be up-to-date

  • Each pet has their own application to complete—make sure you use the right one (linked from their bio)

It’s important to us that each pet goes not just to a great home but to the “right” home. Our foster parents work with each pet to get to know them and their needs.


We try hard to list all of the pertinent info about each pet on the site so you can choose the pet that will fit with your family/lifestyle. If you don’t see a specific pet on the site, he/she is not ready for adoption. Please be patient and wait until the bio is listed. We don’t decide on a “first come, first served” basis but rather on a “who’s the very best fit.” So, don’t panic.


It’s not a quick process. We receive dozens of applications for each pet so please be patient. If you’re shortlisted you’ll be contacted as soon as possible.


If selected to meet one of our pets and you currently have pets, you’ll be asked to do an in-person pet intro; we don’t do the long-distance adoption thing. If you live out of town, plan a fun road trip to meet the pet in person.


Don’t be discouraged if your application is not selected. Remember, we get a lot of them! Trust us, the best fit for you is coming.


If you’re lucky and you do adopt a super amazing pet from Marley’s Mutts, don’t ever hesitate to reach out to us for training, medication, or behavior questions. We’re here for you, and your pet.
