About LA Marty

LA Marty is living off campus with one of our dedicated foster families, thanks to our Foster Care Program. This experience is helping him build confidence and prepare for the loving forever home he deserves. Marty arrived from a rescue partner in Louisiana, initially extremely fearful. However, he has made impressive progress in his foster home alongside his sibling, Patsy. While still somewhat timid, he shows a growing loyalty and affection towards his foster family. Marty's ideal home would have experienced adopters capable of offering patience, consistent obedience training, socialization, and confidence-building exercises. He would thrive with another confident dog to help him adjust. Marty is a wonderful companion who's ready to find his forever family. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
