“On the weekends we would go over and continue to feed and friend her and we realized she was living in a trash dump.” – Marnie Waller
Marnie set out to rescue the Pit Bull and made it her mission from that point on. Marnie went to the dump often to give her food and to show the Pittie she was kind. Marnie trusted Marnie enough that she allowed her to take a closer look. It was obvious that Marnie was very pregnant.

Marnie understood that it was vital to capture the pregnant pup. She didn’t want the puppies to be raised in such a dangerous environment, let alone watch momma fight to survive yet another day.
Although her goal was to win her trust before the puppies were born she was not able to do so. All eight puppies had been born when she returned to the dump. They were scattered in a pile of trash. Marnie knew this was the day to rescue her family.
Sapulpa Police, Sapulpa Animal Rescue and Sapulpa Police helped the rescue team. They began to dig through the contaminated trash pile and picked up each of the day-old puppies one-by-one. All eight pups were freed from their heartbreaking reality, shifting the focus to momma’s rescue.
