The mild mannered secret goofball type? Yup that’s our Radio! This boy comes off a little shy but he’s absolutely hiding that goofball side. Bring in a fun canine friend and you’re going to see a whole new Radio! He’s silly and fun and those antics are going down! We love his true self that he tucks away until he’s comfortable and we know once he’s adopted and settled his real personality is going to shine! Until then we’ll continue building up his confidence and help him be the dog we know he can be.
Shy dogs don’t fare well in a shelter environment and Radio was doomed the minute he walked through those shelter doors. With so many instantly happy go lucky dogs vying for potential adopters Radios initial shyness held him back. He sat unwanted and unnoticed for almost 2 months. Dogs who linger too long in a shelter all meet the same fate…euthanasia. We couldn’t let that happen and knew we could give Radio the chance and the time he needed. Radio has joined us at our rescue ranch and we can’t wait to find this sweet boy his forever home.
Radio is eager to please his humans and needed the extra time rescue can give him to find his perfect family. We’d love to see him in a home with another fun and playful dog to help pull him out of his shell. He walks great on leash and is starting to pickup the basic obedience skills ranch staff are working into his daily routine. If you’re looking for a great dog who needs a little extra time to shine consider giving Radio the chance he’s been waiting for!
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.
