Gretel's Story

Sex: Female Breed: Husky x Estimated Date of Birth : 10/16/2022 Are you looking for cute, bubbly and fun? Then sweet Gretel is definitely the one! She's an adorable ball of enthusiasm and loves playtime just as much as she loves every once of affection people bring. She wears a permanent smile on her face and would love nothing more than a family willing to commit to her for a lifetime. We want to make that happen so this sweet girl is headed into Pawsitive Change at Tehachapi State Prison! Sadly Gretel and her brother Hansel came to us as unwanted dogs. Both tied unceremoniously to the sign at our rescue ranch's entrance after hours. They were lucky they didn't break free, get hit by a car or get eaten by wildlife. We can't imagine how scared they must have been or how betrayed they must have felt being dumped in such a heartless fashion. We've committed ourselves to ensuring both Gretel and her brother never experience something like that again. Gretel was never exposed to much before her time in our care but we're making up for lost time and socializing this sweet girl with the sights and sounds of life. She's young and lapping it all up. Our ranches wide open spaces allow for lots of socialization and playtime opportunities and Gretel loves all the play and running around. Pawsitive Change will give her another opportunity to learn and grow. She'll spend the next 3 months learning all she can and once she's completed the program she'll be adoption ready. We can't wait to find her the perfect home! If you are interested in adopting a Marley's Mutts please fill out an application at http://marleysmutts.org/adoptionprocess/

Marley's Mutts Dog Rescue's Adoption Policy

Every dog that comes through Marley's Mutts lives in our facility where people can visit and meet multiple dogs. Each dog will be introduced on our Facebook page when it arrives and will then have his or her own profile created and put up on our website. The length of time between when the dog arrives and when it is put up on the website varies. Puppies are not typically listed on the website until a few weeks prior to adoption (8 weeks of age). All our dogs will also be spayed or neutered prior to being adopted. They will be micro-chipped and up to date on their shots. Dogs that have behavior or health issues may not be listed on the website for an extended period of time. Healthy, well-behaved dogs typically will be put on the website within one week of arriving at the ranch or foster home. During that week we are constantly assessing the dog's temperament. We need time to be able to determine the dog's quirks and what type of permanent home will be ideal for the dog. Each of our dogs will have his or her own application to complete. Please refrain from applying for a dog and intending the application for another dog not yet listed. When the dog that you are interested in has a bio posted on this website, please fill out the application thoroughly. Answer any and all applicable questions and tell us why your home would be the best place for this pup to go. Once your application has been submitted, please be patient. You will receive an automated email confirming it was received. If your application was selected as a potential adopter, we will notify you and begin the approval process. We will talk to your family over the phone, get clarification on any questions we may have and will also answer any of your questions. Not all dogs have the same needs, so we don't have a generalized "standard home" in mind. We highly recommend bringing residents dogs for a meet and greet. We do not ship or transport our dogs without observing an introduction. Adopters from out of town are absolutely encouraged to adopt from us but will need to make the road trip to California to meet the dog, and most likely take it back home with you that same day, if all goes well. If you're not sure which dog would be the best fit, email us and we can help guide you in the right direction. If your application is not selected, we don't think any less of you or your home. Most likely we had eight out of ten amazing options and yours just unfortunately wasn't the one we picked. Please stay in touch with us and let us help you find the perfect addition to your family. We will notify you if the dog is currently pending adoption and then again when the dog is adopted. You can also follow our Facebook page for updates on the dog you're interested in. Once that pup has joined your family don't ever hesitate to reach out to us. Training questions, medication questions and anything in between are encouraged. We thank you for coming to Marley's Mutts to adopt your next dog. We think very highly of our dogs and enjoy sharing them with the world. For specific questions, please contact Marsha Gebhart, our Adoption Coordinator: mgebhart@marleysmutts.org
