Story

Marley has sadly been passed around from person to person in the short few months of her life, leaving her confused and desperately seeking a bond packed full of love and understanding. She is so deserving of a good chance at love!Marley is very affectionate and smart, and is sure to catch onto training with ease! Food is the game, and she is the star player! Anything with even a sniff of a kibble is the BOMB, and she will thrive with positive reinforcement based training. She loves food and puzzles, and learns how to navigate them with ease! She is catching onto sit and stay like a pro, and cant wait to expand her roster.Marley loves her people, and will gladly trot along your side and be the most loyal companion! She likes doggie friends and plays with them well, but needs a home that can help monitor her interactions in the home to ensure everyone is getting along!This sweet girl has had a difficult start, and spent most- if not all- of her time with her previous owners. This has resulted in some pretty intense separation issues, and Marley really does struggle being alone. She is very vocal and has a hard time settling down, but we know with slow starts and consistency, she would be able to tackle this struggle with her people.She would really benefit from doing some training classes with an Animal Kind accredited trainer to help her start her life off on the right foot! She is so sweet and loving, and is sure worth the efforts in easing her anxieties!Marley would not do well with someone who works away from home for long days, and is seeking a home with someone home frequently, or even someone who works from home for her to be your assistant!If you are interested in Marley, please apply below!!https://spca.bc.ca/survey/dog-adoption-application-cowichan/ Primary Color: Tri Color Weight: 21.6 Age: 0yrs 6mths 0wks

Story

Courtesy Post ***Currently located in Downey, CA*** This is a COURTESY POST for Bobby Boy and Mutt Hut Rescue. Bobby was found as a stray April 3, 2023.  We looked for his family by posting posters on the streets around the area that he was found.  We also did all kinds of Social Media Posts.  Unfortunately, Bobby's family did not come forward and claim him. Bobby is a neutered male, crate trained, potty trained, gets along with other dogs, humans, including small children.  He is a great family dog. He's looking for his very own human(s) to cuddle with, go on walks, hikes, and just hang out with.  Could that be you?? If you'd like to Adopt or Foster, the first step will be to complete the online Application. Please go to the attached link to read more about Bobby Boy and see the Mutt Hut Rescue application  https://www.wagtopia.com/search/pet?id=1702332&name=Bobby+Boy If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact Mutt Hut Rescue. Email is where you will receive the quickest response:    Email: MuttHutRescue@gmail.com      Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MuttHutRescueLA/    ##1777837##

Story

🐾 Meet Midland! 🐾Midland is a stunning 1-year-old German Shepherd, weighing just under 90 pounds! 🐶 He's not just handsome; he's an absolute sweetheart, eager to find his forever home. Midland is a ball enthusiast, and his world revolves around a game of fetch. 🎾 He's always ready to play, though he might need a little coaching on waiting patiently for you to pick up the ball again. But with some consistent training, he'll get the hang of it in no time!This big guy is looking for a home where he can put his intelligence and energy to good use. 🏡 He thrives with a job to do and would benefit greatly from ongoing obedience training. Midland shows potential for getting along with female dogs, especially in a working environment, given the right introduction. When it comes to smaller animals and children, patience and proper introductions will be the best plan, as he is a big boy with a speedy brain! Midland is a gentle soul who doesn't jump up and greets everyone with kindness. 🌟 He just needs someone who will respect his boundaries as much as he respects theirs. In just under 12 hours, Midland has already learned how to sit and "touch" with a little guidance. He's a quick learner and is eager to please his humans!However, Midland still needs to learn to be gentle with his mouth and requires training on not pulling on the leash. 💪He is currently learning to walk on a halter and is doing amazing with that ! He's very strong and with some patient guidance, he'll learn to control his strength and behaviour effectively.Are you ready to put in the effort to help Midland reach his full potential and provide him with the loving home he deserves? 🐾 Let's make memories together!
