In July 2023, a gentle boy named Marshall came to the Ranch, and he was in horrible shape. He was emaciated, had heartworms, and needed hip surgery, but he was far too weak to have it. Marshall was scared and broken. Yet, despite how badly humans had treated him up to then, he nuzzled in close to our volunteers and wagged his tail. He put his trust in us, and we were not going to fail him. Marshall stole our hearts right away.
Our volunteers cared for him around the clock. Little by little he gained weight and grew stronger, and once he was healthy enough, we got him the surgery he needed. In October 2023, Marshall went home to his forever family.
Today, he is living his best life as a neighborhood celebrity, with a family who adores him.
Outcomes like this remind us why we never give up, even when rescue seems impossible. Thank you to Marshall’s family, to our volunteers, and to everyone who helped give him his second chance. We love you, Marshall!
Every senior deserves a happy ending
