Meet Salt Again!! - She is Enjoy The New Home
Calling all hikers and runners: if you need a companion to motivate you to go that extra mile, consider adopting Luke! He is as smart as he is active - Luke has picked up a lot of training here at the Marley
Typically in the past our adoptable puppies would get scooped up and into home really quickly, but for whatever reason Myrrh, Cardamom and Pepper just never had the chance. So they’ve been growing up at the ranch over the past six months. Being at the ranch is certainly better than being on the streets or in a shelter, but these guys deserve better. They deserve a home of their own. Go to marleysmutts.org/adoptadog to apply for one of these pups!

With the need so great we’ve been pulling puppies from the shelter like crazy and now we have sick puppies. Puppies so sick they need hospitalization 😞. With the physical need to get dogs out of the shelter we didn’t need crazy vet bills on top of that but we have to give these little babies a chance to survive. Their whole litter has been struggling and we lost their sweet sister Tulip just last week. We just can’t lose these babies too.
So here we are at VCA-Bakersfield. They’re going to be admitted for at least a couple of days. The initial quotes are almost $3,000 per puppy. That’s going to be at minimum $5,000-$6,000 for their stay. Crazy high numbers but what do you do when emergency care is needed to save a life. So here we are asking for your compassion and asking for your help. Even the smallest donations add up and will give these sweet souls the chance they need to live ❤️

I wanted to share a piece we worked on with Animal Wellness Action. It features our Courage-boy and touches on the reality of dog fighting in America and the outcomes of the dogs rescued.
Please give #AWA a follow. They’re moving legislation everyday, and representing all of us animal advocates on Capitol Hill!
How proud we are of our Courage and the courage he’s displayed his entire life! 🧡?#awareness
Hippo came to us from the city shelter with a broken leg (minor growth plate issues) and as an only puppy. She’s as sweet as can be and is really finding her stride. She’s healed from her break and is fully mobile, learning how to walk on a leash and be with other kiddos. If I were you, I’d put in an application for this kiddo ASAP before she gets swooped up!We have lots and lots of puppies from huskies to shepherds to Pitties. Please help us market them and get the word out!* I misgendered her, because I assumed she was a boy…my bad!
The Dog Days of Summer aren’t over yet and Day of the Dog was a pretty epic way to celebrate our favorite furry friends. Downtown Santa Monica was transformed into a dog themed oasis. 10,000 people and their pups came together for the love of dogs. We played, we ate, we provided love, cuddles and smiles. There were adoptions and every canine activity you could imagine. It was magical and the perfect ending to a long, hot and busy summer!!! #marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue #fosteringsaveslives #savealife #shelter #adoption #foreverhome #spayandneuter #rescuedog #rescue #adoptdontshop #adoptme #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #dontsho#rescueanimals

Help us celebrate Brody’s rescue anniversary! We rescued Brody one year ago, after his family surrendered him at the ripe old age of 17. After years of service to his family, he deserved a dignified end to his life. Since then, he’s celebrated his 18th birthday and become and integral member of our family. From the moment we met, he’s done everything in his power to say thank you, mostly in the form of licks! He’s brought immeasurable joy to our family, especially my dad, who has cared for him intently and constantly over the last year. His nutrition/ supplement routine is dizzying, but we’ve been able to build this old boy back up and hopefully give him the best year of his life. Fostering brings an added layer of purpose to your life, rooting you in service to something that can’t care for itself. Caring for Brody through two bouts of vestibular disease was a huge challenge, but it was also immensely rewarding. My dad and Brody have an impenetrable love for each other, which is easy to see and lovely to behold. In some ways, Dad keeps Brody going and Brody does the same for him. Fostering isn’t just about serving a helpless life; it’s about serving your spirit by loving a dog through its most challenging time in life. Some mornings, I watch him sleep and wonder if he’s going to get up—and one day he won’t, but it will have all been worth it 10 times over. Our shelter population is in complete crisis and fostering is one of the best ways you can help. Please visit MarleysMutts.org/foster if you’d like to foster!

Our sweet boy Naaji has been with us longer than any dog in our care. Hes overcome so many obstacles and shown us the power of a survivor. The last year he thrived in foster care and we wished so much that his amazing foster family had been in a position to adopt but they weren’t. Life has taken them to another state and Naaji is back at our ranch. His time in foster care proved to us that his perfect life includes living in a home with a family. Now we just need to find the right family. One that accepts him differences and and all. One where Naaji will spend the rest of his life. Can you help us find them?5 years is a long time to live without a family of your own and this Arabian prince is ready for his American dream. Let’s make that happen! One share is all it takes and who knows maybe your share will reach just the right person. A person committed to forever. A person Naaji will love in return. He’s definitely waited long enough. We hope his wait is almost done ❤️#marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue #fosteringsaveslives #savealife #shelter #adoption #foreverhome #spayandneuter #rescuedog #rescue #adoptdontshop #adoptme #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #dontshopadop#foster
I can’t speak on who these men WERE but I can speak on who they have become and who they are becoming! Pawsitive Change is a comprehensive, immersive rehabilitation program, operating in 3 California State Prisons, one federal prison—levels 1-4—and 1 female Juvenile Facility (the only of its kind in America). 1000+ men, women and children have graduated, while rescuing and adopting out more than 500 dogs in the process. Nearly 30 of our graduates are now employed in the pet industry, with virtually zero having returned to prison. The state and federal government save between 50-100k per inmate, per year for every student-inmate who can remain out of prison! Already, our work has saved the American tax payer a lot of money and can continue to do so on a massive scale if we are given the support we are looking for. Most impressively, many who have graduated and been released are currently employed as pet industry professionals—most, as dog trainers—making a living for themselves and breaking the cycle! Pawsitive Change is true recidivism reform aimed at providing hope and opportunity for incarcerated people and pets and that’s exactly what we’ve done!We need your support NOW, more than ever!
Bam Bam is just one of many young, large, promising dogs living up at the rescue ranch! How to apply: simply visit MarleysMutts.org for more info!
This big ole meathead is Boris and he’s also our Mutt of the Week!Borris was originally adopted from the city shelter in 2020 and enjoyed a family for 3 years. That’s also where he 1st met our Operations Manager, Connor Long, who was a shelter staff member at the time. Fast forward to 2023 Borris is picked up as a stray and Connor is now employed with us. Boris’ family never came for him and Connor remembered this sweet boy and couldn’t just leave him to his inevitable fate at the shelter. Pitties have a hard time making it out so we made sure he had a spot at our ranch. Such a wonderful big lover boy Borris is still waiting for his forever home. He’s been with us almost a year and we’d love to see him with a family who will love him as much as each of our ranch staff members do. If you’ve been looking for a thick boy who’s all heart then Borris is definitely 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 #dontshopa#adoptdontshop
This #freedomfriday is all about the shy dogs. Have you ever heard the phrase give the shy dogs a chance? Well we can attest that statement is true. Shy dogs just need a little more time to feel safe and open up and once they do you’ve got a dedicated friend for life. Even though it’s hard to see from this video that’s exactly what Yoshi is going to be….your very best friend! Every shy dog we’ve ever met had blossomed once they’re out of the shelter. Can you believe this sweet boy lingered in our county shelter simply because he was afraid and not rushing to the front of the kennel begging for attention. Shy dogs don’t show well in a shelter setting and most people will pass them up preferring the more instantly social dogs. We saw what an amazing dog Yoshi was going to be and now he has his chance to show you what we already know. He’s going to be AMAZING!!! Welcome to Marleys Mutts sweet boy! #marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue #fosteringsaveslives #savealife #shelter #adoption #foreverhome #spayandneuter #rescuedog #rescue #adoptdontshop #adoptme #rescuedismyfavoritebreed #dontshop#adoptdontshop
