A black, shy, large breed dog lingering in the shelter system. Boots really had no chance of making it out. So many just like her never do. Although incredibly sweet she didn’t show well in the shelter environment hovering towards the back of the kennel but the shelter staff and volunteers who worked with her saw what an amazing dog she was. Dog friendly, affectionate, sweet just shy. Boots needed her chance to shine. For 60 days those shelter workers advocated for this sweet girl who just needed a chance and we heard their pleas. Boots got her shelter break and joined the crew at our rescue ranch.
What makes Boots story even sadder is this wasn’t her 1st time at risk in the shelter. A year ago she’d been adopted as a tiny puppy. Adopted and then returned because her family said she was “too much”. Boots was never too much. She was simply not given enough. She was failed by humans who promised her a forever they weren’t willing to provide. So we are going to pick up the pieces like we always do and give this incredible girl the chance she never had.
Today, Boots is a light at the ranch. She gets along with every dog she meets and has become a trusted playgroup helper. Shes spent time in foster care and done great! She is affectionate, gentle, and full of love. Still a little shy but trust takes time. Boots is anything but “too much” she is everything we love to see and more. A dog getting her 2nd Chance and proving those who discarded her wrong. Want to be a part of this girls epic comeback? You just need to apply to give her the story and life she’s always deserved. Boots is ready for her forever. If you are interested in adopting a Marley's Mutts please fill out an application at http://marleysmutts.org/adoptionprocess/
