WASHINGTON — Meet Martha May, this week’s Pet of the Week.

Martha May is a hound/shepherd mix, with eyes that are oh-so-soulful. She has an adorable, pleading face that is so hard to resist.
Martha May is a super energetic pup with a go-getter attitude. At just over 1 year, she is excitable and would benefit from training to channel her exuberance, but she is good with other dogs and loves people.
Martha May is currently heartworm positive; WARL will take care of the cost of treatment, but the adopter must be willing to adhere to a heartworm treatment schedule.
If Martha May sounds like your match, come out to meet her — she can’t wait to go to her forever home.
