Meet Marty: The people’s dog

The three-year-old is polite when inside, and is happy to lounge on his bed while he waits for a game.

Marty isn’t fully aware of his size, and is keen to play with anyone and everyone, so probably isn’t suited to a house with young kids or small animals.

He’s friendly with other big dogs, but if excited, sometimes doesn’t come when he’s called.

Marty’s adoption fee is $360, and includes a vet health check, vaccination, de-sexing, and microchip.

If Marty sounds like the right fit for you, complete the online adoption questionnaire, and a shelter officer will be in contact. You can also call the shelter on 5832 9700.

Shepparton Animal Shelter is located at 125 Wanganui Rd, Shepparton, and is open from 8.15am to 4.30pm Monday to Friday.
