We live in a world where different is considered disposable. Where those differences make a life somehow less valuable. Where people prefer to discard rather than putting in the work to help that life shine. We are all about second chances and the underdog will always be our champion! Kermit is one of those underdogs. As adorable as he is determined this little pittie has a heart as big as his potential. He’s destined for greatness and has the right amount of drive to overcome all that life has thrown his way. Kermit stole our hearts with his resilience and happy go lucky vibes and we know with just the right home this little boy will live up to his future greatness.
Kermit was rescued from the Kern County Animal Shelter. Found abandoned in Lamont, a very rural area of Kern County, Kermit was likely discarded by his breeder due to his inability to use his back limbs. Sadly dogs with mobility issues are rarely adopted out of shelters and Kermit needed rescue help to save his life. We gave him the chance he so desperately needed.
But don’t let Kermit’s differences fool you this boy can MOVE! He’s absolutely not hindered by the way he was born and lives life to the fullest every day. He’s full of pittie love and all that pittie determination. His set of wheels gets him where he can’t go on his own and he just needs an understanding human and maybe a fun canine friend to pal around with. If you think that may be you and you want to learn more about living with a wheelchair pup please apply to meet this sweet boy in person. He’s ready to give you all the cuddles and love your life was missing and we promise his care is not as hard as you may think.
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.
