Martina was surrendered to the shelter paralyzed in the bottom half of her body. The shelter sent out a notice that she was at risk of being euthanized. We visited her at the shelter medical ward and she was incredibly sweet and gentle. Despite her back legs being paralyzed, Martina would happily run around on her front legs, dragging her paralyzed legs behind her. While she has some difficulties to overcome, she is young and clearly finds joy in life. We will work on getting her fitted for some wheels.
