Martha (also called Martha Mae) is a 6-year-old German Shepherd mix with a big heart and a resilient spirit. After being left alone in a house for weeks, she has fully embraced comfort and safety in her foster home—she’s now steady, calm, and grateful. Martha is completely house and crate trained, and she’s trustworthy to have free run of the house when you’re away. She thrives on connection and will look at her people like they’re the center of her world. Cuddling is her specialty, but she’s no slouch in the play department either—she loves a good game of tug of war and chasing around the yard with her foster brothers. Martha is both kid and dog friendly; she’s gentle and protective with small children and would shine as a loyal family companion. She’s the perfect mix of playful and laid-back, always ready to settle in beside you on the couch after a round of fun outside. Martha is looking for a family that wants warmth, affection, and a dog who’ll truly bond. She’s ready to show you how special she is. Click apply to start the adoption process.
