My personality

My story

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

At six years of age, Marley has already experienced a lifetime of ups and downs. He went missing in July 2019, but was found in June 2024, five years later. He had been found and kept by a gentleman but he passed unexpectedly. When animal control scanned his microchip, they notified us and he's been waiting since. We'd prefer that he have a fenced in yard due to the odyssey he went through but we are not married to fencing.

His loving and affectionate nature never changed but he was no longer social with other dogs. Marley finds himself surrounded by other dogs that upset him with their barking. He loves walks, hikes, car rides, chewing toys and bones like a normal dog. He adores kids age 5+ and they're his jam. He's great with people and always respectful. He's clean, and house trained. The only thing that has prevented Marley from finding his forever home, is the fact that he doesn't like other animals.

If that quirk doesn't bother you, please apply at www.brasscityrescue.org to meet him.

More about this rescue

Our goal is to help the animals and citizens that need us.
Our reach is far, wide and we do our best to never refuse aid. Through education, support and life saving,we hope to make a difference in Connecticut.

We strive to get as many dogs adopted as possible via our rescue. We have our own dog shelter and hold weekend adoption events to find forever homes for our pups. We provide veterinary care, behavioral assessments and training to make each animal successful in its new forever home. Though we no longer adopt cats out, we do assist other local rescues in the networking of homeless cats, including trapping and trap-neuter-release.

We collect food, toys and other needs for our rescued dogs including veterinary donations for their care while in rescue. We network for dogs at local shelters and lend a hand to our rescue friends whenever we can. We also advocate for the well being of the dogs and their living conditions and strive to better improve the long standing customer service issues at many Connecticut Animal Control facilities. We also help the public with questions, training, referrals to veterinarians etc. Through constant media promotion and proper assessments of the dogs, we hope to save as many lives as possible in our day to day mission.

This RESCUE group is CT registered and has APPROVED 501(c)3 status with the Internal Revenue Service. All donations to Brass City Rescue Alliance are tax deductible.
