• Marilyn's Story

  Marilyn has been through a lot. She was taken in by a good samaritan after they found her in a ditch on the side of a road, skin and bones. No owner was located so she came to us in 2024. Now she’s back with us again after being found sitting in the back of a shelter with no explanation of why she was once again abandoned.

  This beautiful girl is looking for a foster or forever home. She’s about 3 years old, up to date on vaccines, spayed, house trained, crate trained, loves kids, dog friendly. Marilyn is deaf and has found herself back in the shelter at no fault of her own. She is such a sweet girl and doesn’t understand why she is here when she once had a family.
