Meet morty

Morty is 6 years old, 59 pounds, and a firm believer that laps should accommodate dogs of all sizes. During outings with staff, he has climbed into laps for pets, played happily with toys, and greeted familiar people with full-body wiggles. He knows “sit,” takes treats gently, and enjoys walks with plenty of opportunities to investigate interesting smells. One staff member described him politely greeting a group of people, simply sniffing and wagging his tail. Those moments show the affectionate, curious boy who emerges when Morty feels comfortable. 

Morty needs a patient adopter who will build trust through a steady routine and give him time to settle in. Unfamiliar situations and some interactions around his food can make him uncomfortable, so respectful space during meals and guidance from our adoption team will be important. He is not recommended for a home with small children, and his suitability with cats and other dogs is unknown. He has walked more comfortably in a harness and enjoys spending time outside exploring with his person. For Morty, a home would offer the chance to trade an overwhelming environment for familiar company, restful afternoons, and daily sniffing adventures. His adopter will get to know a playful lap-seeker whose quiet moments of trust are every bit as special as his happy wiggles. 

All adoptions include support from our adoption team to ensure a smooth transition from the shelter to your home. Adopted pets are vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed/neutered before leaving the shelter`s care. To view our current available animals, please visit: https://indy.gov/activity/adopt-a-pet.
