He’s an approx 1.5 yr & 30lb Sheltie mix. Left out in dumping grounds with other dogs, Martin was taken in by an independent rescuer. He was malnourished, dirty, and extremely shy. Fast forward to today and Martin has grown into his beautiful coat and is learning to trust again. He doesn’t quite understand how to be a puppy just yet but he is extremely sweet and he’s making great strides. He’s currently being fostered with other dogs of all sizes and will melt into your touch, once he gets to know you.  We’d love to get Martin into a home with someone who will continue to love on him and bring out his personality full time and have a playful dog that will help teach him how to be a puppy.  To meet Martin, please apply at https://www.muttsinneed.org/adoption-application.html  August 9, 2025, 11:41 am
