Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Marty is an adorable senior Chihuahua mix, who is about 10 years old and around 20lbs. He was adopted out from WCHS in 2023 and was recently returned due to his owner having health issues. He’s back at the shelter, loving all the staff and volunteers but he really wants to be in a home again. He loves to lounge around with people or in a comfy dog bed. While Marty is dog and kid friendly, he does get protective to guard his human in a home environment, so he is looking for a home as the only pet. Marty walks pretty well on leash and does enjoy rolling in the grass for belly rubs too.
Marty's adoption fee has been generously sponsored!

Please understand that our facility takes the health and safety of its staff and surrounding community very seriously. With that being said, entry to our building is only granted to those who have been pre-approved and have been given a viewing appointment. Walk-in viewing IS NOT an option.
