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,

Everyday hero’s got their chance to shine at the annual CASA Superhero Run hosted by CASA of Kern County last weekend. Supporting children in need was at the top of everyone’s agenda and those supporters came out in force! To date CASA has provided supportive services to over 3,000 children experiencing neglect or abuse in our community. Our Miracle Mutts team couldn’t think of a better way to give our support to such an amazing group of hero’s and the children they work so hard to protect! #marleysmutts #miraclemutts #joy #love #giveback #therapy #therapydog #dogood #begood #friends #rescue #bethechange #makeadifference #healing #dogsaremedicine

Shelter overcrowding often brings to light the heartbreaking reality for sweet dogs like Momma Millie. These soon-to-be mothers face the tragic fate of euthanasia due to lack of space. The thought of euthanizing pregnant moms or entire litters is absolutely heart-wrenching for shelter personnel. Thankfully, Danielle, our dedicated Enrichment and Training Coordinator, advocated for Momma Millie’s rescue. On Monday, Millie and our team welcomed a beautiful litter of 8 puppies into the Marley’s Mutts family. We have 6 precious girls and 2 adorable boys. Now, we need your help to give these little ones names! Can you help us find the perfect names for them? #adoptdontshop #fostersaveslives #spay #neuter

Euthanasia listed dogs are given the chance to live, an act they so desperately need. A simple yes saves their lives and your support ensures we can give that yes each and every week. This #freedomfriday we thank each of you, the legends that make rescue work a reality for thousands of dogs every year. Your contributions of time, money and heart are the driving force needed to save these lives time and time again! #marleysmutts #muttmilitia #dogrescue #foster #adopt #rescuedog #secondchance #fostering #animaladvocate #adopt #dogrescue

It’s National Black Dog Day and we are showcasing all the AMAZING black dogs we currently have available for adoption! Unfortunately black dogs are twice as likely to be overlooked by adopters and this means black dogs are twice as likely to be euthanized in shelter environments. For some, coat color matters when in reality shouldn’t because black dogs are equally as wonderful as any lighter coated pups! Help us celebrate just how amazing these dogs are by re-sharing this post to help get some of our black dogs adopted. Do you have a black dog? Tell us about your pup in the comments. #nationalblackdogday #adoptdontshop

When Bertha arrived at the shelter, she was a heartbreaking sight, bearing the scars of severe injuries and overbreeding. Her body told a story of unimaginable hardship, with ears nearly nonexistent from excessive cropping, scars covering her skin, a droopy lip, and broken teeth. Despite all she had endured, Bertha’s spirit remained unbroken. Her incredible sweetness earned her ‘Novice’ status in our Miracle Mutts Program. Our Miracle Mutts Coordinator saw the miracles within Bertha and decided to foster her. Bertha’s wonderful nature shone through so brightly that Torie couldn’t resist adopting her.
