About us

Marley's Mutts Dog Rescue is 501c3 nonprofit based in Central California and works with local shelters with documented critical stray and euthanasia statistics. Dogs on the euthanasia list receive priority to rescue. They are brought to the MMDR rescue ranch where they decompress, receive training/enrichment/medical care and are placed into foster care or adopted. Marley's Mutts has capacity limitations as do the shelters. We established Marley's Mutts Movers, a program that works with local shelters to transport up to 41 dogs per month to rescues in Oregon, Washington and Canada. These rescue partners receive the dogs, place them in foster care or the dogs may be immediately adopted. This effort significantly contributes to the welfare of dogs and helps connect them with loving homes. Mutt Movers saved 395 dogs last year and hopes to increase tht number to 500/year. Marley's Mutts is also a co-founding member of Kern SAFE (Saving Animals From Euthanasia) Animal Coalition, a partnership composed of dedicated rescue groups, shelters and volunteers working together to address and implement practices best serving pets and their owners by providing no-cost spay/neuter, vaccinations and microchipping and dog tags to underserved/underprivileged neighborhoods. Another no-cost program administered by Marley's is Miracle Mutts, a Therapy Dog Program (Animal Assisted Therapy and Education) serving Kern County Library in aiding children's reading and literacy, Kern County Behavioral Health, Dignity Health Hospital System and Kern County Court Appointed Special Advocates' children in foster care. The Pawsitive Change Prison Program pairs dogs from high-kill shelters with incarcerated individuals for mutual rehabilitation. This certificated program assists those released to obtain work in professional trainer vocation,
