Looking for a playgroup ROCKSTAR? A dog equally happy to see humans as he is to see the dogs? Then you have to meet Buster! This gorgeous boy doesn’t know a stranger and is just so happy to meet each and every single person and dog who comes his way. Happy go lucky should absolutely be his middle name. His enthusiasm for life is infectious and his exuberance is guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Can you believe he sat at a small rural shelter for months with no interest?!?!
Buster was picked up by animal control in May of this year in the small city of Wasco. Wasco is a farming community and their local shelter is tiny but they do their very best to give each dog a chance to be adopted. Buster lingered for 4 months. No rescue interest and no one willing to adopt eventually put this good boy on the euthanasia list. Such a great dog deserved his opportunity to share his joy with the world and so we gave Buster his big break. He headed to our rescue ranch in Tehachapi and has never looked back.
Buster hit the ground running making new friends and enjoying all the wide open spaces for play and connection. We discovered he loves games of fetch and each and every bit of his very large 84lbs is 100% sweet and affectionate. He’s a really great dog so very happy to be alive and we are here to make sure he has an amazing life worth living. Ranch staff are working on some basic obedience skills and manners and this big boy is more than ready to find his perfect home. If you’re looking for a big, adorable, playful, lovable guy Buster is absolutely the dog for 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.
