An incredible boy who doesn’t let his differences define who he is or what he can do meet Rune! He may not be able to see the world but he feels it with his whole heart! He’s stunning, loving and he’s completely blind. But don’t let his blindness deter you. Blind dogs navigate the world with all their other senses and almost all blind dogs thrive when given a chance. Rune is no exception! He can do everything his less visually impaired friends can do and maybe even do it better. We hope you see this beautiful boy for the amazing dog he is and give him the chance at the forever home he deserves. We have a feeling you’ll love him just as much as we do.
Unbelievably Rune was found wandering the streets of Oildale alone. He was so incredibly lucky he wasn’t hit by a car and even luckier a Good Samaritan picked him up and took him to the shelter. That Good Samaritan likely saved his life! Rune waited at the shelter for a month. His owners never claimed him and adopters passed him by. No one wanted a dog that was a little different. And Runes differences almost cost him his life. But we know how amazing blind dogs can be and so Rune got his chance and headed to our rescue ranch.
Although he can’t see Rune has never looked back. He embraces wherever life takes him and has quickly become a staff favorite. He’s already learned the layout of his areas at our ranch and his adjustment was speedy quick! Rune is super affectionate and dog friendly. He’s ready to find a home that understands his visual differences don’t hinder him and will give him the amazing home he’s never had!
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.
