Kern County Animal Services is at full capacity, and the harsh reality is that dogs like this Pit Bull mom and her precious litter can’t be kept at the shelter indefinitely. Without intervention, they face a tragic fate that no animal should ever experience—euthanasia.This brave mom has done her best to care for her pups, but they need a safe place to grow and thrive. The shelter environment isn’t suitable for them, and the clock is ticking. We urgently need a hero to step forward—whether that’s a rescue willing to take them in or an adopter who can provide the love and security they deserve.These dogs didn’t ask to be brought into this world, but they’re here, and they need our help. Fostering or adopting not only saves lives but also opens up space at the shelter for other animals in need. If you’ve ever considered fostering or adopting, now is the time. Your compassion can make the difference between life and death for this Pit Bull family.Please reach out to Kern County Animal Services or contact us if you can help. Together, we can give these dogs the chance they deserve.

Growing puppies need lots of supplies and Gunner’s 1st order of business is to make sure ALL the things are ordered from our Amazon wishlist 😉. A purchase from our Amazon wishlist is a wonderful way to give back and give our dogs everything they need to be happy, healthy and fulfilled.

Amazon wishlists are an easy way to donate and boy do we appreciate every item you’re able to give. Take a minute to check out our wishlist by going to our linktree and clicking the “Amazon Wishlist” tab,

Gunner also wants you to know that he’s looking for his forever home. He hasn’t made it up on the website just yet but you can reach out to our adoptions team at [email protected]

Nelly hasn’t gotten a whole lot of social media love during her time with us but we can absolutely give her a bit of visibility now!

This sweet girl started her Marley’s journey scared and under socialized. Time in foster care and now time at our ranch has really helped her start to come out of her shell. She’s learning to trust and her fear of the world has improved significantly. Nelly is ready to take the next steps and find a family she can call her own. A family who will understand that she may start off a little shy but once she knows you she’ll be completely devoted and the best companion pup you could ever imagine. She’s been great with other dogs so wouldn’t mind a canine pal or two and has decent leash manners to continue her socialization.

Give the shy one’s a chance and come out to meet our sweet little nervous Nelly. She’s more than ready to meet you! To apply head to the linktree in our bio, click “adopt dogs” and get your application in!

Max and Sable, two beautiful souls, belonged to Jasmine Marvel, one of the most dedicated fosters Marley’s Mutts ever had. For over 10 years, Jaz and her Mini Marvels recovery group saved countless dogs, giving them a second chance at life. After Jaz passed away suddenly, Max and Sable came to live at the ranch, where they’ve been patiently awaiting the next chapter of their lives. Now, they need your help to find a loving forever home. Could you be the one to give them the love and care they deserve? Please share and help us find Max and Sable a new family.

Her face is bright with the possibilities of the future. A future made possible through the hard work of many and our amazing Pawsitive Change program.

Pippa is ready to take the next step. She’s learned a lot and it’s now time to find her the perfect home. This girl is a bright light who loves other dogs, loves to play and has the training skills to make her an excellent family member. So many attributes there’s no reason she can’t find a family to call her own. So let’s help her get the only thing missing from her journey…..people to love.

Don’t think puppies are at risk? Think again! Tiny little babies overcrowd our shelters and are losing their lives for space every single day. No chance to live in this world. No chance to experience all the wonders life can hold. No chance to even grow up. It shatters our hearts and the hearts of every single shelter staff member we know. Happy little new lives gone in an instant simply because people won’t stop breeding and there just aren’t enough homes to give these babies the happy endings they deserve.

This we celebrate the young lives we can save like Hoffman and Dusty in this video. We pray that many more are making it out through both rescue and adoption. We are the only lifeline they have and every single baby should have their chance to grow up with a home of their very own ❤️

Looking for a great dog? What about a great dog who’s getting their 2nd chance and helping humans along the way? Now add a 3 month long training program and all the skills they’ve learned in that training program. Win win right?!?!

Piper, Lucky, Neptune and Tucker are just a few of the amazing dogs available for adoption through our Pawsitive Change prison program. All dog friendly, all with a solid foundation in basic obedience skills. These dogs would love to find their forever homes. If you’re looking consider giving a Pawsitive Change dog the family they’ve always wanted.

We’ve had some lovers of life in our rescue years and Ajax is definitely one of them! He’s big, beautiful and has the kind of enthusiasm most of us could only dream of. He’s here for everything life can throw his way and he welcomes it all with open arms. He’s a giant puppy that just wants to have fun and litterally everything is fun. People, dogs, toys he loves it all and we can guarantee he’s going to love you too the moment he meets you!

Ajax found himself at our County shelter and was never claimed by his family. If we could guess he started out as an absolutely adorable puppy and got big quick. Although he was a happy guy his size and lack of training with his former family made him hard to handle so they just chose to abandon him. What’s sad about that is just a little training could have turned his energy into something positive. He’s such a friendly dude he only needed some guidance. So that’s exactly what he’ll be getting with us.

Ajax landed a foster home with a trainer. Pretty lucky right! This guy is now getting the foundation in manners and basic obedience he needed from the start. His foster is working to slow him down esp around other dogs (he gets so excited cause they’re so fun). She’s also working on crate and leash training. His future home should have large breed experience and some knowledge of training so Ajax can continue gaining the rules and boundaries he’ll need to be his most successful self. Continued structure and routine is going to make this boy the amazing dog we know he can be!

We’re not quite sure what it is about the special dogs but they always seem to know when another is just as special as they are. Those special ones are the ones they choose to help. It’s like they gravitate to the need and know, even better than us humans, exactly what to do. Roo, born without front limbs, faced her fair share of adversity because of her differences. She still found her forever home and gives back on our Miracle Mutts therapy dog team. Now she’s helping little Neutron navigate all that life has thrown his way. This sweet boy is likely a hospice case. Born with hydrocephalus, blind, deaf and with a stage 4 heart murmur his former family threatened to throw him out in a field to die. He’s just a baby and with his differences would have met a horrible painful death. Another rescuer ensured that did not happen and reached out for help. While we don’t know what his future will hold for now he’s safe in foster care and with a foster sister like Roo will never be alone or unwanted again ❤️

All the biggest smiles are brought to our friends at Kern Behavioral. The dogs love going and they love having us. These individuals spend their days helping others and we are honored to give them the emotional support they need to continue doing the good work they do ❤️

Looking for a happy dog? The kind of dog that lights up no matter who she sees. Well that dog is definitely Prudence! This sweet girl is all bubbly joy and puppy enthusiasm mixed into one. She’s a bright spot on a stormy day and brings her happiness to both humans and dogs alike. She really does love everyone. You’ll find her enjoying all of our ranch playgroups with a variety of dogs and wagging her little bobbed tail as she interacts gently with children. She’s the perfect family pup!

Prudence was one of the lucky ones who found rescue. Sadly medium and large breed puppies are struggling to make it out of shelters and are frequently found dumped in the community when their families can’t re-home them. Prudence was picked up by another local rescue but when she struggled to be seen and find an adopter we stepped up to help and give her the visibility she needed. She’s joined the crew at our rescue ranch and we are confident we’ll find this sweet girl her forever home.

Prudence is working on her basic obedience skills with ranch staff and enjoying all the perks rescue life has to offer. She’s a well rounded social girl who can’t wait to find a family of her own. With her happy face and even happier demeanor we have a feeling finding that family won’t take long. Interested? Get that application in today!

While we always need fosters our plea today is for volunteers. We know not everyone can open their home but just about everyone can open their hearts and that’s exactly what volunteering is all about. Opening your hearts to those most in need. Maybe you can only give a little time or maybe you can only give once. We promise whatever you are able and willing to give is seen and appreciated by the dogs in our care. They know you are giving from the heart and that heartfelt gift is all that matters to them ❤️

To volunteer a little or a lot just head to the linktree in our bio, click “Volunteer” and fill out the application. Our ranch team will connect and help you figure out how volunteering can work for you!

If you’re looking to adopt Jocko (pictured) has so much love to give and he’d love to meet you 😉

If regal good looks are a thing then Parker absolutely understood the assignment! This handsome boy is the entire package. Social, happy, dog friendly, trained. What’s not to love? And that’s why we don’t quite understand how Parker hasn’t been scooped up yet.

Maybe it’s his dark coat? Maybe it’s his medium size? Whatever the reason we can guarantee you’ll be adopting a fantastic dog if you bring Parker home. If you’ve been looking add Parker to your list because he’s ready and waiting to go home and start a life with you!

At Pawsitive Change, we believe in second chances and turning despair into hope; pontenial into dreams. One of our shining examples is Troy McDaniel, a remarkable individual who has gone from being a student in our program to a successful dog trainer and pet consultant.

While enrolled in Pawsitive Change, Troy demonstrated hunger, purpose, skill and patience, helping to save several challenging dogs. His dedication and natural talent for dog training quickly became evident, and he emerged as a leader among his peers.

Since his release, Troy has continued to build on his experience, becoming a sought-after dog trainer and pet consultant for several years now. His expertise and compassionate approach have made a significant impact in the lives of countless dogs and their families.

Troy has also shared his journey and insights in a book he authored, providing valuable guidance and inspiration to others. His story is a testament to the potential that resides behind prison walls and the importance of supporting personal growth and rehabilitation.

We encourage you to follow Troy’s journey and support his work by visiting his page . Believing in and nurturing the potential of individuals like Troy is far more productive than simply punishing them. There is a better way to incarcerate Americans and involves access to programs like ours. Thank you for supporting us!

Lucky families and even luckier dogs. Why are they lucky? Well adoption of course! These wonderful humans chose to open their homes to a dog in need. That choice will give them all more happy years than we can count. Congratulations!!!!

Beauty isn’t only in the eye of the beholder it’s in the simple souls hoping for their chance at a better life. Those who for whatever the reason are deemed “less than” because they look a certain way or stigmas follow their breed. We want you to really look beyond that hype, look beyond the prejudices you may hold and simply see the beauty that’s there before your eyes. Linger in that beauty, allow those harsh judgments to pass and what you’ll see is a life looking for the love that every life should have and hoping the kindness of a few will change the mindsets of many.

Kenya is one of these many beautiful souls. Discarded through no fault of her own and overlooked simply because of her breed. She’s a gentle and kind girl hoping humanity will give her a chance…..A chance is all she needs to share a lifetime of love ❤️

Rescue is absolutely a team activity. So many individuals participate in different ways to ensure these dogs get everything they need. From our dedicated volunteers, employees and board members to each of you who donate and share supplies and funds. We couldn’t do what we do without each and every one of you! If you’d like to be a part of the generous humans who make up our it’s as simple as going to our website or engaging on this post. Our website will outline all the ways you can help and those preferring to just stay on this post can share or give with just a couple of clicks. It takes a village and we are super thankful for ours ❤️PS how cute is Jellyroll helping us put together and try out the newly donated Kuranda beds!!! Shes still available for adoption and maybe her cuteness will finally win over just the right person who needs a little of the love she has to give in their life.

Help us break the cycle of recidivism and heal souls, both human and canine, with our Prison Dog Training Program.

With your support, we can provide training supplies, educational materials, veterinary care, and certification programs, creating a brighter future for all involved.

Looking for every dog’s best friend? Well then you’ve come to the right place because Arlo LOVES his canine buddies. He’s spunky and playful and looking to have some doggie best friends to call his own. And active is what he’s hoping for. He loves to play and is always down for an adventure so an active home with some equally active dog friends would be his perfect fit! This boy is fun and we want to find an equally fun home he can call his own.

Like so many medium and large breed dogs right now Arlo was running out of time at our county shelter. Our shelters are packed with shepherds so standing out in that sea of faces was incredibly hard for a dog like Arlo. Thankfully he had a group of rescuers sharing and advocating to save his life and we noticed. A foster spot opened up and Arlo got his lucky break.

Arlo scored a foster home with a trainer. For a dog of his size and breed this was the perfect placement coming right out of the shelter environment. His foster is giving him time to decompress but also working on basic manners including leash skills and crate training and establishing a solid human connection. His foster is making sure he has the tools he needs to thrive in his adoptive home. If you’ve been looking for an active dog and can continue this beautiful boys training please get your application in today. Arlo is ready to meet his new best friends!

The Pawsitive Change Program provides a safe haven within the prison system for self-improvement, growth, and healing. Our mission is to help our students develop the skills and mindset needed to return home and lead fulfilling lives.

The California penal system is often characterized by racial segregation, creating divisions that hinder personal growth and rehabilitation. Pawsitive Change offers a respite from this rigidity, fostering an environment where students from diverse backgrounds can work together, learn from one another, and grow collectively.

Prison life can feel like an incubation of negativity, but our program offers an alternative. Through Pawsitive Change, students are pulled out of that darkness and into a supportive community where they can apply themselves, develop new skills, and shine.

By focusing on positive change, our students transform from within, becoming assets to themselves and society. Join us in supporting the Pawsitive Change Program and be a part of this transformative journey. Together, we can help build a brighter future for those working hard to reclaim their lives.

Lucky is waiting….he’s waiting and he’s hoping. There’s got to be an adopter for this wonderful boy right? Hes put in the work and had some pretty amazing trainers during his Pawsitive Change stay.

Interested? Just head to the linktree in our bio, click “Adopt Dogs” and fill out that application. Just think Lucky might finally have his luckiest day ever going home with a family like you!

Want to know what kind of fostering situations work for us? The answer is just about any situation. If you can help and are within driving distance to our Central California based rescue we can use you! ⬇️⬇️⬇️

-short term fosters for transport dogs (this gets the dog out of the shelter and safe while they wait for their flight). This also frees up shelter space for incoming dogs. Typical time commitment 1-2 weeks

-weekend fosters. Fosters are human and have lives outside of fostering. Weekend fosters give current fosters a safe place to stay while the primary foster is out of town. Typical time commitment 2-4 days

-senior fosters. Love the seniors? There are tons in the shelter with minimal opportunities to get out. Fosters give them a chance to exit the shelter, go into rescue and have the time needed to find an adoptive home. Typical time commitment 2-6 months

-large dog fosters. Large and medium size dogs are the most at risk in our shelter system. They have the least options for shelter exit and are the most frequently euthanized in shelters. By fostering a medium or large dog you are truly saving a life! Typical time commitment 2-4 months

-small dog fosters. Want to help but can’t do the big guys? There are lots of small dogs also needing out of the shelter. Typical time commitment 2-3 months

-puppy fosters. Some people just live puppies and our shelters are full of them! Want to help an entire family? We can find you one and puppies are soooo much fun! Typical time commitment 2-4 months

There are so many ways to help. If you want to help but aren’t sure if your situation would work head over to our website, click the how to help section and fill out a foster application. We’ll get back to you with an answer 😊

🚨🐾Urgent: Help Save a Pit Bull Mom and Her Litter from Euthanasia🐾🚨

They know when they’ve been saved. They know the moment they walk out those shelter doors that their life has taken a completely new direction. As we start the beginning of our week what better way to get us motivated than with the sheer joy of a life celebrating the possibilities of 2nd chances ❤️Want to bring some of this infectious happiness into your life? Amelia would love to meet you!

His jaw has basically disintegrated and his teeth are just hanging on to what left of his gums. His knees are blown out too, but the good news is he’s not in any pain and his heart is good! Dr. Darrow took blood, which will help us determine whether he’s a candidate for anesthesia and getting his teeth fixed. You guys, he’s a tragic case, that goes without saying, but this dude’s spirit is in tact and he’s got some good time left on this earth! Let’s come together and cheer for a wonderful final chapter or two!Last but not least, he needs a name! I like Lil Peep, but I’m weird. We have him listed as Gizmo, but we’ve had a few Gizmo’s in the past.Thank you, Mutt Militia, for helping us help this kiddo!

This little fella came into the shelter just as we arrived. He was found abandoned and stray in 112 degree bakersfield, barely able to move. His teeth and lower jaw have disintegrated; he can’t hear and can barely see; he’s only three pounds and was desperate for a friend to help him out. He had to be put in quarantine where most of the dogs are sick, and would have gotten him sick too, which would have spelled the end. We just couldn’t leave him and decided to take him home. He rode next to/ on top of Cora the entire way. He was exhausted last night, so I didn’t want to bath him. He fell asleep on my chest after dinner and then slept through the night in my laundry basket. He’ll be seeing Dr Darrow asap and we’ll put together. Shame plan. Hopefully, he can be anesthesized, and we can clean up his awful mouth and remove those teeth. I have a feeling this kiddo ain’t done.

Ok all you cat friendly houses you’re going to want to meet this sweet girl…..Meet Kenya! Kenya is amazing with her feline friends. We frequently get asked if our dogs are cat friendly and for many the answer is no but Kenya absolutely is. We hope those with cats who are looking to adopt the perfect dog will consider Kenya. What they’ll be getting isn’t just a cat friendly dog. They’ll be getting the sweetest, chillest pittie ever!!!! Kenya is a total love bug. Like roll over on her back and give her all the belly rubs love bug. She lives for human interaction and that makes it so much harder to understand how she ended up at the shelter. Kenya was picked up as a stray by the county shelter covered in fleas, ticks and foxtails. She actually had surgery to remove multiple foxtails from her anal glands. Sadly no one came for sweet Kenya and she was lingering in the shelter environment. With her breed lingering almost always guarantees getting added to the euthanasia list so when one of our amazing fosters said yes Kenya got her big break! Cat friendly isn’t Kenya’s only attribute. This girl is so incredibly chill. There’s nothing high energy about her and she’s happiest hanging on the couch with her people. Shes absolutely a lapdog, all 60lbs of her, and she’s ready to smother you with every bit of affection your heart can handle. Kenya prefers other non confrontational easy going dogs and wouldn’t do well with pushy high energy pups. Shes amazing on leash and doesn’t have any big exercise needs. Basically she’s an easy and sweet girl hoping to finally get noticed and finally have her chance at an adoptive home.#marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue #fosteringsaveslives #savealife #shelter #adoption #foreverhome #spayandneuter #rescuedog #rescue #adoptdontshop #adoptme #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #dontshopadopt

Jelly Roll!

**Meet Jelly Roll: Our Beloved Senior Pit Bull Seeking a Forever Home** Say hello to Jelly Roll, our adorable senior pit bull who found her way to us from Kern County Shelter. This sweet girl has become the heart of our rescue ranch, earning the affectionate title of our “house dog.” Jelly Roll has been with us for a few months, and in that time, she’s charmed everyone with her gentle demeanor and loving spirit. She enjoys lounging around the ranch, greeting visitors, and soaking up all the love and attention she can get. Despite her age, she’s full of life and has so much love left to give. While we adore having Jelly Roll with us, what she truly longs for is a loving adoptive family to call her own. If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate companion, Jelly Roll could be the perfect addition to your family. Help us find this wonderful senior the forever home she deserves. 🐾❤️ For more information on adopting Jelly Roll, please visit our website or contact us directly. Let’s give this sweet girl the happy ending she’s been waiting for.

The suspense is killing us! We want to know who’s going to run out and sign up to foster 😃! Is it you?!?! We hope so cause your yes will change lives! Big lives, little lives and everyone inbetween there’s always a need in rescue and so we have to keep on asking. We can accommodate most foster situations and are located in Central California so fosters should be within driving distance to our rescue ranch in Tehachapi. If you can open your home please head to the linktree in our bio, click “Foster”, fill out the application and our team will get back to you. So many deserving lives are just waiting to have their 2nd chance. You could give them that chance they so desperately need ❤️PS Sundance (the pug mix in this video) is adoption ready and waiting for her forever home. If you’re looking for a fun little buddy to adopt she just might be the one for you! #marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue #fosteringsaveslives #savealife #shelter #adoption #foreverhome #spayandneuter #rescuedog #rescue #adoptdontshop #adoptme #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #dontshopadopt
