Meet Marnie – She’s Ready for More Than This

Marnie is a lively, loving girl who’s starting to feel the weight of rescue life. She’s craving connection, routine, and a place where she truly belongs. This sweet girl thrives on human attention — belly rubs, soft words, and simply being near her people are what make her happiest.

She’s affectionate, engaged, and has that beautiful way of leaning into you like she’s been yours forever. Quiet cuddles? That’s her sweet spot. But she also has a playful side and enjoys time with other dogs, though she can be a bit selective — slow, thoughtful introductions help her feel comfortable and confident.

Marnie has made great progress and is doing much better on leash. She’s strong, yes, but she’s also smart and responsive, and with a little consistency, she continues to improve. She wants to learn. She wants to get it right.

She is not good with cats, so a cat-free home is important for her success.

What she really needs now is out.

Out of the rescue.
Out of the waiting.
Into a home where she can exhale.

What Marnie Needs:

  • A committed foster or adopter ready to give her structure and guidance
  • Daily exercise and continued leash work
  • A home where she can feel included, safe, and loved

Marnie is ready now — truly ready.
She doesn’t need perfection. She just needs someone to choose her and give her the chance she’s been waiting for.

And once you do… you’ll wonder how she was ever overlooked.

History: This sweet mama was rescued from the local garbage dump with her 5 puppies of which only 1 of her pups survived parvo.

Before leaving Cortez Rescue, all dogs will be given a full medical assessment to ensure optimum health, current on vaccinations, and spayed/neutered. All dogs are micro-chipped before leaving Mexico.
