My story

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

Who's calling Marty a senior? We think he acts like a much younger pup! This silly boy has a lot of pep in his step and loves going for adventures. He doesn't let his vision impairments slow him down one bit! Not only is Marty super friendly with people, he loves to make doggie friends. If you're looking for an affectionate, active lovebug, Marty may just be the one for you!

Here's some notes from his foster:

After fostering Marty for a little over 24 hours, here are my initial observations ...

Marty is not completely blind. I know his one eye is completely blind however, I think he sees shadows and lights with the other eye.

He responds to his name. He is a great walker.

I can't wait to learn more about him as he gets more settled in!

More about this rescue

Muttville is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization dedicated to improving the lives of senior dogs. On a local level, Muttville rescues senior dogs and finds them foster homes or gives them hospice. On a global level, Muttville provides information about caring for older dogs and support for people who do.

Through associations with shelters and other animal organizations, Muttville finds senior dogs that have been given up and are not likely to find adopted homes. Through outreach and networking, Muttville finds suitable foster homes for these dogs. Ultimately, Muttville will have its own facility to house dogs that are not yet placed, or that are unlikely to be placed.
