About Martini

Martini is a senior Yorkshire Terrier who has recently joined us after being found as a stray. While we work on getting to know her better, we typically lack background information on animals in her situation. Our staff will take the time needed to assess her behaviors and update her bio with more details as they learn. Since Martini is pending vet clearance for interactions with other animals, we don’t yet know how she gets along with them. She might need training in areas like house, crate, and leash manners, which is common for strays. If you're interested in bringing Martini into your home, please submit an adoption questionnaire. Our process is first-come, best-match, and it’s important that everyone in the household, including children and other pets, meets her first to ensure a good fit. If it all comes together, we love encouraging same-day adoptions! Martini is in Newark, DE, waiting for someone to give her a loving home. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
