MARTIN - ARRIVES IN MAINE JANUARY 24TH

Caleb’s Opus is overjoyed to welcome MARTIN to our family! <br/><br/>Sometimes the hardest stories are the ones wrapped in half-truths.<br/><br/>MARTIN was brought to our Southern partner by someone from a nearby community who claimed she had “found” the puppies. But the details didn’t add up—and they rarely do. These babies weren’t lost. They weren’t abandoned by chance. They were hers. And when she couldn’t find homes for them, she brought them to a shelter. <br/>When asked about the collars they were wearing, she said she had put them on after finding them. They were frayed litter collars—chewed nearly all the way around, tightened as the puppies grew, the kind that only come from weeks of siblings gnawing on each other. Too tight. Too familiar. Too telling.<br/><br/>MARTIN didn’t choose any of this.<br/><br/>He didn’t choose to be born into a situation where responsibility ran out before compassion. He didn’t choose the collars, the story, or the uncertainty. What he does get to choose now is his future—and that future starts with us.<br/><br/>At just 10 weeks old, MARTIN is still a baby. Soft, hopeful, and completely unaware of how close he came to slipping through the cracks. He deserves warmth, safety, and a family who will never need to make excuses for his existence.<br/><br/>MARTIN arrives on 1/24, and we cannot wait to show him what love looks like when it’s done right.<br/><br/>Could you be MARTIN’S Family? Please go to www.calebsopus.org for an application! <br/><br/>All dogs are spayed/neutered at the time of adoption. Note: Caleb's Opus is licensed to adopt in the State of Maine.
