Scarlett's Story

Sex: Female<br/><br/>Breed: Pit Bull x<br/><br/>Estimated Date of Birth : 09/04/2022<br/><br/>The sweetest dog in the world Scarlet's story is one of heartbreak turned hope. She was surrendered to Wasco Animal Shelter, a rural shelter, where dogs often sit unseen for months. With kennels filling quickly and no adoption interest , Scarlett was placed on their euthanasia list a month after arriving at the shelter. This good girl was almost out of luck and completely out of time. But she had a ton of people working hard to get her seen and save her life. Thanks to the efforts of our volunteers and our commitment to giving dogs like her a second chance, Scarlet is getting her chance with us!<br/><br/>But 2nd Chances never seem to all be perfect and Scarlet can't seem to catch a break. When she first arrived, she was lethargic, struggling to breathe, coughing, and so sick she could barely hold herself up. With a treatment plan from our vet she has significantly improved but still has an infection and bouts of nausea that we continue to treat. Poor Scarlet also has an old break to one of her back legs. It's fully healed but she will always walk a bit funny. <br/><br/>With the continued treatment plan for her infection we anticipate that Scarlet will need another 1-2 months in our care before she is fully adoption ready. While she heals we are learning a lot about this resilient girl. She's one of the sweetest most mellow dogs we've ever met. Always affectionate she adores all humans and has quickly become a staff favorite. She gives lots of pittie kisses and is always down to give and receive a little love. Because she's been sick we haven't been able to fully test her with other dogs but she's been completely nonreactive when passing kennels or play yards. Scarlet is such a good girl we can't wait for her to fully recover and find her perfect home. Interested? You can apply while she heals so get those applications in!

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
