Linda's Story

Age: Approximately 6 years<br/>Size: Small<br/>Breed: Mixed Breed<br/>Some dogs wear their stories on the inside. Linda wears hers right on her face.<br/>When she first arrived, one of her eyes was severely ulcerated and there was real concern she might lose it. Thankfully, with excellent veterinary care, she's healing beautifully and her eye has been saved. Her coat was thin from neglect, but every day her fur grows in a little more--proof that healing takes time, patience, and love.<br/>Linda hasn't let any of life's hardships steal her sweetness. She is gentle, affectionate, and happiest when she's close to her people. She has a quiet, grateful way about her that makes everyone who meets her root for her. However, she is growing more and lovely by the day. She has a confident strait now and Loves walks and to be held. She loves my kids and other dogs. <br/>She's looking for a family that understands rescue dogs sometimes need a little time to settle in, but the reward is immeasurable. Linda doesn't need perfection. She needs kindness, consistency, and a soft place to land.<br/>We believe her best chapters haven't been written yet. The frightened little dog who arrived needing medical care is becoming a beautiful, confident companion, and we can't wait to watch her continue to blossom in a home of her own.<br/>If you're looking for a loyal friend with a resilient spirit and a heart full of love, Linda is waiting to meet you.<br/>Apply to adopt Linda today through Marley's Mutts and help give this beautiful girl the happy ending she's always deserved.

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
