Sasha

This beautiful little bear is Sasha and she is a 12-week old Golden Retriever/Shepherd mix. We rescued Sasha from the Bakersfield Animal Shelter along with her brother, Kermit. They don’t make em’ much more adorable than Sasha. The first day for Sasha was a little scary–she and her brother just huddled as close to one another as possible, shaking, as if in shock. I was pleasantly surprised when on day two, I found them playing in their huge water bowl, having a puppy water fight. They were drenched and they had eaten all of their food, which made me one happy dog rescuer. They get funnier and more comfortable with each passing day. Recently, they were trying to tag-team wrestle against Marley, who was not in the mood to entertain two boisterous children. Marley let out one loud “RRRRUUUUUFFFFFF,” which just about peeled their ears back and sent them diving underneath the porch. They learned Marley’s Mutts rule #1: Don’t mess with the big guy if he’s not in the mood! Sasha’s temperament is very “golden retrieverish” and I can just see her blossoming into a gorgeous, elegant gal. Sasha has been vaccinated with her first shots, has been wormed and is ready for adoption.

If you are interested in adopting Sasha, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852 or email Zach@marleysmutts.com.

Kermit

This adorable little whippersnapper is Kermit and he is a Golden Retriever mix. We rescued Kermit from the Bakersfield Animal Shelter where he could have met an unpleasant demise. Thankfully, Kermit, and his sister, Sasha, are now at Marley’s Mutts. The first day for Kermit was a little scary–he and his sister just huddled as close to one another as possible, shaking, as if in shock. I was pleasantly surprised when on day two, I found them playing in their huge water bowl, having a puppy water fight. They were drenched and they had eaten all of their food, which made me one happy dog rescuer. They get funnier and more comfortable with each passing day. Recently, they were trying to tag-team wrestle against Marley, who was not in the mood to entertain two boisterous children. Marley let out one loud “RRRRUUUUUFFFFFF,” which just about peeled their ears back and sent them diving underneath the porch. They learned Marley’s Mutts rule #1: Don’t mess with the big guy if he’s not in the mood! Kermit is a little confused by life, as you can tell by his expression, but his precocious nature and sense of wonder make him that much more adorable. Kermit has had his shots and has been wormed and is ready to ride off in to the sunset.

If you are interested in adopting Kermit, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852 or email zach@marleysmutts.com.

Princeton

Judy Stevens — Mon, 30 Jan 2012 01:51:18 +0000

This strapping little guy is Princeton and, although the intensity of his eyes could lead you to think he is part Lemur, we think he is actually a Miniature Pinscher. Princeton is definitely Ivy League–he was actually found at Jacobsen Middle School. He came inside, sat down and acted like he was there to learn. After seeing this, the staff and kids couldn’t just let him go to Animal Control, so one of the girls brought him home and the rest is Marley’s Mutts history. Princeton has the look of a Min Pin but is just a little thicker—not so dainty. Many Min Pins look as though they are just waiting to break a leg but that’s not the case with Princeton. Princeton is just a proper little guy who is getting better at life each day. From walking on a leash to housetraining, Princeton has got the hang of it. Princeton has an appointment for neuter next week and will be brought up to code with his vaccinations.

If you are interested in adopting little Princeton, please contact Zach at 661-972-3852 or email zach@marleysmutts.com.
