My story

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

ABOUT MARLEY
If you love shepherd personalities, then this girl is for you! Marley is a 4-year-old Shepherd mix with the biggest brain and an even bigger heart! Marley came to HAP from a local rescue group in New Jersey when they no longer had space for her. Whether you have toys or treats, Marley is eager to please. She already knows many commands, such as 'sit', 'paw', 'down', 'stay', 'other paw', and 'come'. She also appears to be house-trained and walks very well on a leash. Occasionally, she may bark at the other dogs walking through the kennel areas but is easily redirected with a toy. Marley absolutely loves stuffed toys, prancing around with them any chance she gets. She also enjoys playing fetch in our fenced fields to get some fun exercise. After play, she is quick to nestle into your arms for cuddle time!

**Marley can be selective of her doggy friends. If you have a pup at home, we would do a meet-and-greet before adoption to ensure everyone gets along well!

If you are interested in adopting this dog, please submit an adoption questionnaire! Our adoption process is on a first-come, best-match basis and we are not able to hold animals. If you are interested in this specific dog but it ends up not being the best fit upon meeting, our adoption counselors will work with you to help find a match! All household members, including children and other dogs, must come along for the meeting to make sure it's a good fit. If a match is made, we encourage same-day adoptions! Our adoption fees include the animals' spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, fecal testing, heartworm testing, and a small bag of food to get you started.

Additional adoption info

Our adoption process is designed to help you and your family find the perfect match in a pet. When the right match is made, we strive to conduct our adoptions thoughtfully, transparently, and with the utmost respect. You can view and submit an adoption questionnaire online ahead of your visit by going to our website: humaneanimalpartners.org. A questionnaire is not required to come visit us, but we will have you fill one out if interested in meeting with our animals. We strive to make the best match possible for you and for the animals. Most of our pets can go home same-day and come vaccinated, spay/neutered, and microchipped.
