Meet Marta — a mystery, a legend, and a total sweetheart looking for her forever home.
Marta weighs about 38 lbs and stands knee-high. She comes with an incredible life story, most of which she’s keeping to herself. Even the vets couldn’t guess her exact age — her teeth are better than those of 2-3 year old dogs (not a speck of plaque!), though her front teeth are a little worn from a life on the streets, chewing on whatever she could find. But one thing’s for sure: she’s young, playful, and full of life.
Marta loves kids. When she lived on the streets, neighborhood children would hang all over her and she adored it. She’s great with cats and couldn’t care less about birds.
With other dogs, she’s perfect. She’ll wrestle with the energetic ones, politely ignore the cranky ones, and mother the puppies.
You can still feel the faint trace of a municipal tag on her ear, meaning Marta once went through a city shelter before someone removed it. What happened next is a mystery until the day her foster dad rescued her. Marta lived with a street pack, dedicating herself to collecting scraps to feed the younger pups. One day, she made the right decision, walked into his yard, and decided to stay.
Marta would thrive in a family with kids, other dogs, or both. She’s calm, kind, and endlessly loyal. And after everything she’s been through, she deserves a soft bed, a loving family, and a happy ending.
