Looking for a best friend? A Netflix and chill kinda dude? Then Pilots got you covered! As relaxed as he is handsome we’d classify Pilot as a low energy level dog. Yes that’s surprising for a heeler but this guy is super duper mellow! He’s happiest being with you and getting all the cuddles and snuggles. He doesn’t have a lot of energy needs but is still fantastic on leash and super fun to take out and about because he has perfect manners in public.
It seems more and more really good dogs are ending up at the shelter and that’s exactly where we found Pilot. Picked up as a stray in Buttonwillow, a very rural area of Kern County, this boy was covered in foxtails and had several medically removed from his ears. We’ll never know why he was abandoned but someone’s loss is definitely our gain. This boy is a gem!
Pilot is ready to bring his good dog self to your family. He’s hoping for a home that wants lots of affection and he wouldn’t mind a couple of female doggie friends, boy dogs make him nervous. He did well with his cat assessment and is a lover of all things human. If you’re looking for mellow and have lots of love to give Pilot just might be the boy for you! Apply today!

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.
