Calling all herding dog lovers… you have to meet Quinni!! Quinni is a 40lb Heeler, possibly mixed with Australian Shepherd. Shes pure joy and the definition of happy! Always smiling and her little bobbed tail constantly wagging she’ll flop onto her back for belly rubs at a moment’s notice. True to her herding roots, Quinni is smart, active, and eager to have a job. She would thrive with a family familiar with herding breeds who can provide structure, enrichment, and plenty of adventure. Those that love these herdy dogs are going to immediately fall for this sweet girl. Seriously what’s not to love!!!
This gorgeous girl was found on Rosedale Hwy in Bakersfield wandering the streets. She was picked up and taken to the County Shelter. During her shelter stay she had excellent playgroup notes and maintained her bright happy outlook. Unfortunately no one came forward to claim her and no one seemed interested in adopting her. Their loss was our gain and Quinni eventually made her way to our Tehachapi Rescue Ranch. Quinni has never looked back and quickly acclimated to life with our ranch team.
Quinni walks nicely on leash, is dog friendly, and is so ready to trade rescue life for a forever home. What she wants most is to be someone’s loyal sidekick. Quinni is looking for a family who will appreciate her lively nature and give her the active lifestyle she deserves. In return, she’ll be a loyal, fun, and loving companion. If you love the herding breeds and have been on the look out to add a gorgeous girl to your family then Quinni just might be the girl 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.
