My name is Marshall and Oli!

Hi … we are Marshall and Oli and here are some things you need to know about us!  After you read through our bio, if you think we might be the perfect pups for you, please go to www.allamericanmuttrescue.org/forms and complete your adoption application online.

Be still my heart.  If you are looking for two sweet boys who just want to be loved, these could be your little men.  Marshall and Oli are brothers who have been together all their lives and both are sweeties.  Separating them at this point would be hard on them.  When they were 3’ish, their owner to surrender them due to life changes that effected their housing situation.  They were soon adopted by a family who truly adored them, but due to a serious human health issue, the boys are once again looking for a new family.

Marshall and Oli are as close to perfect as little boys can be. They have been so loved all their lives and that is all they are looking for. They are both a little shy when you first meet them, but Marshall adjusts very quickly, and since he is the ‘leader,’ Oli tends to follow even though he is a bit more reserved than his brother. Once they are comfortable, Marshall likes to lay on the back of the sofa and look out the window and Oli’s safe place is his crate (with the door still open).  They both love cushy beds and soft blankets, too.  Could these two laid back guys be just the companions you need in your life?
