Her soulful eyes tell a story we will never know. We can see the pain in those eyes. The desire to have kindness for once in her life. Such an incredibly sweet dog she deserves all the kindness we can give. This breed is so misunderstood and dogs like Rose are a wonderful reminder of how much they feel and how much they hurt when humans fail them. Rose despite her past hardships remains gentle and hopeful that her world will finally give her the peace and goodness her heart needs. Isn’t that what we all want? A good life and a happy existence. It’s time to bring Roses sad pleading eyes the joy they’ve never had.
Rose was a stray picked up by animal control and taken to our county shelter. Like so many pit bull type dogs no one was looking for her and her fate was inevitable. She would spend her last days locked up in a kennel. No one would be interested because there are just so many pitties and she would die. But we saw her eyes. We watched as her tail never wagged and her steps were always uncertain. She was a dog with no hope and a dog who’d never felt love. No one should exit this earth never feeling the marvelous anticipation of hope or the wonderment of love. Rose deserved, for once in her life, to matter. So we gave her the exit she so desperately needed. Rose was finally saved.
This sweet girl is just beginning to understand that her life is changed. We see her quiet hope rekindling and the spark starting to light. She is very mellow but little bursts of personality are starting to emerge. The random play bow, the instant zoomies. Seeing her find joy in just being alive is incredible and we want her to feel this way forever. She’s a Velcro dog who doesn’t have a mean bone in her body and craves human acceptance and attention. Shes good with other dogs although a bit shy and reserved and will be your quiet shadow forever grateful you gave her a chance. Rose is searching for someone special, someone who will offer a warm, loving home to help her heal. She may be quiet now, but with patience and love, Rose’s bright future is waiting to unfold. Would you be the one to give her that chance?
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.
