Then someone stopped.

Meet Martina.

At just 7 months old and 28 pounds, Martina is a beautiful, sweet soul with the most gorgeous brown eyes. The kind of eyes that seem to look right into your heart.

Martina is incredibly loving and gets very attached to her person. Once she knows you're hers, she wants nothing more than to be close to you. She is eager to please and has such a gentle, loving personality.

And she's wonderfully well behaved, too.

Martina is great with other dogs and cats. She's quiet, house trained, crate trained, and great on a leash. She is the kind of dog who is ready to become someone's constant companion, walking beside them, curling up nearby, and finally knowing what it feels like to be safe.

We look at Martina's beautiful, soulful eyes and wonder what they have seen.

She has known hunger.

She has known fear.

But she has also learned that people can be kind.
