My story

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

Marty is the sweetest boy in town! He’s a chihuahua mix and he is about 1 years old. He grew up on the street around other animals and then was suddenly hit by a box truck in early April. He tumbled and rolled three times. Luckily, shelter staff happened to be at the scene and immediately brought Marty in. After being in the shelter for a few weeks he was fostered by a potential owner. This person loves Marty very much! Marty loves going on walks and is learning to be leash trained. He’s docile with other dogs and does extremely well with dogs of all sizes and breeds, except rottweilers. Truly, Marty made friends with EVERY dog on EVERY walk except the rotties. He is very social and loves stopping and saying hi to other doggos on walks. Marty is truly the sweetest most loveable dog. He’s high energy, is trainable, loves shredded chicken, and is looking for his forever home. His foster parent has cats and Marty unfortunately didn`t get along with them. Marty would be best placed with a family with other dogs and/or toddler-teen kids. He would do great with another doggie sibling!!

Health Notes -
-Marty has one eye and has depth perception trouble, so he needs to be picked up going up or down the stairs
-Marty has separation anxiety and would do good with anxiety relief/calming dog chews

Please consider rescuing Marty! He is the sweetest boy, a survivor, and he’s aching to be settled into his furever home<3
