About Martha

Martha, sometimes known as Martha Mae, is a 6-year-old German Shepherd mix who has bounced back from a tough past. After being left alone in a home for several weeks, she’s found stability and care in her foster setting. Now, Martha is fully house trained, crate trained, and trustworthy when left unsupervised indoors. She’s equal parts affectionate and feisty: she’ll gaze at you with adoration and jump at the chance to snuggle, but she’s just as happy sprinting around with her canine foster siblings or pulling at a rope in tug of war. Martha gets along easily with other dogs, has shown gentleness and protectiveness around children—including toddlers—and would make a fantastic addition to a family seeking a playful but laid-back companion. Martha is searching for her special person and is ready to prove why she’s so memorable. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
