Marley was saved from a high kill shelter in Texas, where dogs generally have just 3 days to be saved before they are killed for space Marley is neutered, core vaccines, rabies, de-wormed, tested heartworm negative, has had monthly preventatives and micro-chipped. He has an estimated date of birth of 3 June 2017 and weighs around 44.60 pounds. He has been listed as a German Shepherd Dog.  We have no way of knowing the exact breed, so it is up to individuals to decide what breed they think is most likely.

Marley is currently on transport and will be arriving at the rescue in Sebec, Maine on Tuesday 12th June 2018, so we are not able to provide any further information or pictures until she has been here a few days. The shelter staff did tell me that he is l aid back, friendly to people & Dogs. Not concerned about anything, walks well on leash.

Being a working breed dog, we do prefer families that are familiar with the specific breed, or a working dog breed so that they fully understand that although these dogs are very intelligent, they do require a lot of work in keeping them physically exercised and equally, if not more important mentally stimulated.

​We do not recommend dog parks for several weeks, if not months, it is so very important for families and dogs to form a strong bond and get to know each other before exposing them to the potential dangers of dog parks. Although all GaDaH dogs are very well socialized with other dogs, lots of other dogs have not had the benefit of this socialization and do not always know how to play and act with other dogs. You also do not know the control the other families have over their dogs and you should always have a good recall for your adopted dog before going to dog parks.

Marley is available for adoption for an adoption fee of $550. Canadian adopters need to know that customs charge 15% taxes when entering into Canada. This fee is not negotiable and is used to cover the rescue costs of pulling, vetting, health certificate, transport from Texas to Maine, monthly preventatives, supplements, food and anything else that is needed.

If you feel that you have the heart and home to give this precious soul a wonderful life, please go to our website, under the APPLICATION tab, complete, then submit the APPLICATION. Our process takes around 2-4 days, and ensuring your references are aware that we will be calling, could speed up the process. Once you have been approved, we discuss any questions in regards to the dog you are wanting to adopt, then you complete and submit the contract, make payment and then we can work out the pick up / transport arrangements.

Please do NOT submit an application if you are not looking to take home a new best friend within the next few weeks.
