Location:

Tehachapi, CA

Description:

Sex: MaleBreed: Labrador Retriever xEstimated Date of Birth : 08/13/2016Looking for a dog that’s just happy to be part of a family? A dog who enjoys the simple things in life? Well Naaji is that dog! He may not be physically perfect but what he lacks in mobility he makes up for with a heart of gold. For 5 years he’s waited for the perfect home and he’s hopeful that perfect person will finally see his posts. They’ll see his posts and choose to make him part of their family. That’s what he wants most in the whole world. His little piece of the American dream…..5 years ago Naaji made the trek across the ocean from Saudi Arabia to the United States. Naaji was originally a guard dog. In fact his name in Arabic means useful. And that's what he was viewed as by his owner as a useful tool to protect his home. When Naaji was hit by a car, he was no longer useful. His owner wanted to euthanize him because he thought, as many think, that there was no quality of life and that there was no purpose to having a "lame" dog. Thankfully there was a rescue in Saudi Arabia that stepped in and saved Naaji's life. However, the rescue realized they did not know how to care for a handicapped dog. But they realized Naaji still had a purpose. They searched and found Marleys Mutts. They had seen, through our social media pages, that not only could we care for a handicapped dog but that we were trying to change the perception surrounding them. They reached out and coordinated a drop off in New York City.When Naaji came to the ranch it was clear that he had not been afforded some of the simple luxuries that nearly every pet here enjoys. He did not know how to receive affection and would often snarl. It became clear he had never had positive human interaction. Hes now called our ranch home for many years. He’s learned the skills needed to be part of a family and is hoping to have a family of his own. He finally landed an amazing foster family and has blossomed in a home environment. We knew he would and we are now more determined than ever to find Naaji his forever home. If you’ve been looking or maybe you know someone who has please share Naaji’s incredible journey with them. His story and his perseverance will speak to people’s hearts and hopefully give him the forever he’s waited so long for. Family’s interested in giving this sweet boy his perfect happy ending please apply. He’s ready to start truly living his American Dream.
