Arrival Story:
Martin belonged to my cousin. She has several Shih Tzus. One day I stopped by to visit and all the dogs were on the deck barking at me except this one little guy who was vigorously digging the top of my feet as fast as he could as if to say,HEY! Pay attention to ME! I'm down here! I picked him up and we fell instantly in love! Marty was a stud dog but he's retired now and those days are behind him. You'll see him in the photo with his last litter of pups. That's the last time he can be a Daddy! Time passed and he fell in love with my Cocker and she with him so much so that it's very touching. They're always together and they always sleep touching each other. They share a seat in the car and they share food. These are not things my Cocker would accept from anyone else. We have just gradually adopted him and he has adopted us!

Bio:
Martin is a cute, sweet, lovable caretaker. He loves to be held and cuddled and when you cuddle him, he turns to rubber!He has developed a very special bond with Tessa-Marie. They're so cute together they decided to start their own blog! If you'd like to see more of them they're at www.tessaandmartin.blogspot.com! Stop by and say HI! to them!
