My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Marta gets along with all - cats, kids and dogs. At 9 months old, she in a great place for training to become a very best friend to someone deserving. They were dumped on a Good Samaritan who offered to watch them for a couple weeks. The owner never returned and said she no longer wanted them, leaving the caretaker in a bit of a predicament as the landlord is not happy with added animals in the rental.

She would benefit from another canine to play with, and a fenced yard or very active family to give her plenty of exercise.

Here's a video to show their wonderful temperament with all.

To ensure we're meeting both pet and adopters' needs, we ask potential adopters to complete an Adoption Application (www.bit.ly/DH-Adoption) for caretakers to review. Once your application is approved, we will bring the adoptable pet to your home for a preliminary visit. We are 100% donation-funded, and our fees are equivalent to (or less than) the cost to fully vet a new dog yourself.
