Martin is a 2-year-old Shih Tzu mix weighing just 9 pounds, and right now he's still letting us in on the little secrets of who he is. Martin is a shy boy who likes to take his time getting comfortable with new people and new surroundings. He isn't looking to be the center of attention. He's much more interested in finding a soft bed, stretching out in a warm patch of sunshine, and quietly watching the world go by. And honestly, Martin may be onto something. He enjoys treats and occasionally lets loose for a little playtime with his friend Gibson, giving us glimpses of the more playful personality hiding underneath that shy exterior. When Martin was found, his coat was extremely matted and desperately needed some TLC. Despite everything he had been through, he was a very good boy for his grooming. Because Martin is still new to Canine Castaways, were continuing to learn about him. We don't yet know all his favorite things, his funny little quirks, or exactly what his perfect home will look like. But were starting to see pieces of him. Martin doesn't need someone who expects him to show them everything on the first day. He needs someone willing to give him a little time and enjoy discovering who he becomes once he knows he's safe. Some dogs arrive ready to tell you their whole story. Martin is giving us his one page at a time.
