Meet the adorable Marky! 🐾 This little ball of energy is a 10-week-old Belgian Malinois mix, and let me tell you, he’s just bursting with potential and love to give! Since arriving at the shelter on January 20th, 2026, he's been wagging his tail and dreaming of a forever home where he can romp and play. Imagine him bounding through your yard, ears flopping, and all that puppy energy lighting up the room!✨ Marky isn't just a pretty face. He's incredibly smart and eager to learn! This pup's a bundle of joy, ready to bring laughter and adventure into your life. Just picture the fun you'll have together—puppy playdates, training sessions, and cozy snuggle times on the couch! Plus, since he’s a Belgian Malinois mix, you can be sure he's got that delightful blend of playful spirit and protective instincts. Did you know that Belgian Malinois are known for their intelligence and agility? They’re often used in police work! 🕵️‍♂️ But here's the truth, folks: Marky is running out of time! ⏳ The shelter is currently bursting at the seams with over 300 dogs, and our beloved Marky is one of the high-risk pups because of limited space. Let’s rally together and make sure he finds his forever home! Adopters must be located in Kern County, and meetings and adoptions must happen in person at the shelter in Bakersfield. But don’t worry if you’re on the West Coast—CAPS can arrange transportation! 🌊 So, if your heart is telling you that you have room for a spirited puppy like Marky, don’t just sit there! Apply to adopt him through the Buddy App and let’s make his dreams come true! Marky is waiting for someone like you to sweep him off his paws! ❤️
