 IN NEED OF LOCAL FOSTER OR ADOPTER / AVAILABLE FOR FOSTER TO ADOPT  Meet Marty!

DOB 11-16-22), 45 lbs., vetted, is or will be neutered, and micro-chipped. Marty came into the shelter with another dog, Wrinkles that was adopted a while back, but sadly, Marty did not. Then he spent a lot of time in sick hold and boarding! Marty is affectionate and goofy, tested well with other dogs, know Sit, loves tennis balls, pets, treats, and playtime! Marty would thrive in an active home where he can get the attention, affection, and training he needs. His exuberance is matched only by his desire for fun and love. He has the cutest curly tail!

Please note Fosters have 1st option of Adoption. Check out his Facebook page (please "Like" us while you are there)! Disclosure:   Breed labels are often incorrect: we rarely know the genetic lineage of the dogs we rescue.  Many shelters and rescues specify breeds based on appearance; however, research has shown that less than 2% of a dog’s DNA determines appearance!   Passion 4 Paws does not practice the use of labels pertaining to compatibility with others or dog breed.  Labels such as “dog friendly” and “child friendly” should be used with caution as they often over-simplify the personalities and behavior of dogs.    October 5, 2025, 5:38 pm
