My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rita has her very own video at: https://www.facebook.com/marley.narleydude/videos/1643770555728524/
Please visit us at Marley's World 2016 to see Rita and her foster brothers and sisters in foster care.

Hi, My name is Rita and I am very lucky to be alive. A while back I was dragged by a truck until all my back toes and my butt was sanded off. I was saved by some nice caring people who took me to the vet and then got me to Marley's World where I recovered fully. Even my toenails grew back. I was in such bad shape that they thought I was much older than I really am. I got here in June and it is obvious now that I was still a puppy then. I am about a year and a half old now and am very calm and steady for my age. I get along well with my foster siblings and that strange smelling thing they call a cat. Sometimes I forget myself and pull the stuffing out of my toys and stuff. If you look at my picture with my friend Jackson. who is a pure bred German Shepard Dog you can see that I am a dainty 45 lbs but otherwise almost indistinguishable from a GSD. I weigh only 45 lbs and of course have been spayed, had all my shots, been wormed and found negative for Heartworm and placed on preventative. Like most German Shepherds I am really intelligent and sensitive and want someone who will help me finish growing up and reach my full potential. Paw says with my focus I would make a good search and rescue or drug dog. If you have any questions about me or Marley's World give us a call at 870-291-0365 or email us at marley'sworld@tutanota.com.
