Martin

My story

How this pet arrived: This pet was brought in by a community member. Why this pet is the one for you:Martin is a sweet, sensitive dog who is learning that the world can be a safe place. While he may not be the kind of pup who bounds up to new people right away, his quiet loyalty and gentle spirit make him a truly rewarding companion for someone willing to go at his pace. Martin will need continued support as he adjusts to a new home. Change can be overwhelming for him, and adopters should be prepared for a slow transition. It's important to offer him safe, quiet spaces where he can choose to rest or observe at a distance helps build his confidence. Adjustment periods can vary greatly from dog to dog. For Martin, it may take several weeks-or even months-for his full personality to emerge. During this time, it's essential to allow him to move at his own speed. Martin thrives with gentle routines, clear communication, and low-pressure opportunities to explore his environment. Martin is looking for a calm, patient home with someone who understands that love sometimes grows quietly, over time. If you're someone who values the deep connection that comes from earning a dog's trust, Martin may be the one for you! At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered.
