Martha's Story

Martha is a 6 year old, Plott Hound mix. Originally, she came to us through an overcrowded shelter in South Carolina that reached out for help. She was adopted, but unfortunately, returned in April 2026 after her adopter's health began to fail. Martha is spayed, updated on her vaccinations, heartworm tested negative, flea treated, dewormed, and microchipped.<br/><br/>This girl is the best of both worlds. She's playful, yet calm and cuddly. You'll have a hard time finding a more perfect pup. <br/><br/>Martha is very treat motivated, walks extremely well on a leash, and is a huge fan of outdoor time like all hounds are. <br/><br/>Being as calm as she is, we believe she would do well is almost any family situation. Martha is housetrained.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Martha, please fill out an adoption application using our website (echumanesociety.org) and a member of staff will be in touch with you as soon as possible. Please call the shelter at (814) 834-3247 with any questions.

Elk County Humane Society's Adoption Policy
Adopting a new friend from the Elk County Humane Society is really very simple. All you have to do is fill out our application for the dog or cat you are interested in. This can be done right at the shelter or by filling out the online application on our website. The application contains some questions to help us get to know you better. Supply a few non-family references that can vouch for your ability to care for an animal. We do require any dog or cat at home to have a valid/current rabies vaccination and you will be required to bring proof when adopting. When the paperwork is all done a "meet and greet" with other family dog(s) will be encouraged. Once everything is approved, we will fill out the paperwork to make it all official, unless the pet is not yet spayed or neutered then they will be put on foster until they are fixed. If it doesn't work out, don't worry! We offer a 90 day return policy where your adoption fee will be refunded if your new pet turns out to not be the best fit. All dog adopters must leave the shelter with either a yearly or lifetime license before adopting their new best friend. Easy, right?
