Meet Marley

Meet Marley! Marley is the kind of dog who makes you wish he didn’t have to spend another day in a kennel. This sweet 2-year-old Pit Terrier mix is playful, affectionate, and full of personality. He loves people and enjoys being around adults and children. He also does well with cats and other dogs, making him a wonderfully social boy who just wants to be part of a family. Marley loves to run, play, explore, and have fun, but underneath all that playful energy is a huge softie. He absolutely loves his people and is happiest when he can curl up beside them, get some affection, and simply be included in whatever is going on. He has a big personality, an even bigger heart, and so much love to give. Shelter life has been hard on Marley, and he is kennel stressed. We know there is so much more to this boy than what you may see when he is confined to his kennel. When he has the opportunity to get out, interact with people, and simply be a dog, his sweet and affectionate personality really shines. Marley doesn’t need a perfect family—he just needs his family. Someone who will give him the love, companionship, patience, and time he deserves. In return, they’ll get a goofy, playful, affectionate companion who wants nothing more than to be loved and included. Marley has been waiting for the chance to leave the kennel behind and finally know what it feels like to belong. We hope his forever family finds him soon.
