Welcome to the SUNDAY STORY.
MARVIN - On this Father’s Day we want to tell you the story of our only official DAD at the rescue. Marvin is here with his son and daughter, Moby and Mocha. He has been with us for over a year, 444 days to be exact.
He had an extremely rough start in life. He was living in a home where there was severe domestic violence. The three dogs were crammed into one small crate for weeks on end with very few bathroom breaks or food. The woman finally managed to flee the situation. She could have gone quickly on her own, but with her bravery she took the extra time to load all the dogs safely into her car. They continued living out of the car while she desperately tried every SPCA and shelter across several counties, no one would take the dogs. We received a call from a friend about their situation. Our Founder would not let these dogs go ignored. She drove six hours to rescue them and she made room for them despite the fact that we had no kennel space. They were malnourished, had terrible sores and urine stained fur… they were somber, they were traumatized. We can only imagine what Marvin was feeling as he lived through all of this. We got him medical care, a safe environment, and surrounded him with love. He is healthy, happy, and thriving.
The most remarkable part of his story? In spite of all the trauma, he is such an incredibly good and kind boy. He has an old soul and his blue eyes will surely melt your heart. He is smart, athletic, and loves to play catch in the yard. Underneath it all, he is a big lovable goof. He is potty trained, good on leash, loves long hikes, good with all people and dogs, knows ‘sit’ and ‘paw’, and loves attention. He is so ready to get into his forever home.
We know the right person is out there. Could it be you? Is there anyone in your life who comes to mind?
PLEASE ‘like’, ‘share’, ‘repost’.
Together let’s get MARVIN ADOPTED!
