About Marti

Marti is a resilient spirit who has captured the hearts of many. As one of our shelter fire survivors, she spent weeks recovering from severely burned paws, showing incredible strength through her painful journey to healing. Now fully recovered, she’s eager to enjoy outdoor walks, hikes, and playtime in the yard. Marti thrives on mental challenges, having completed basic and agility training, so she needs an engaged owner who can keep her active and offer her stimulating activities. While Marti is affectionate and smart, she would do best in a home without children due to her previous issues with toy and food guarding. She is playful, often entertaining herself with her toys, and enjoys a structured environment. We're looking for someone who can provide the love and stability she deserves. Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
