The Story Behind MartyWoody
Resilience, friendship, and everyday joy—one dachshund adventure at a time.
Memorial Day 2026: Marty, Woody, and Baby Jazzy honor the Battlefield Cross, a tribute to fallen service members.
Where it began
More Than Dogs—Family
Marty, Woody, and Baby Jazzy came into our lives as pets and quickly became family: companions, entertainers, and teachers in how to find joy. MartyWoody.com was created to celebrate their lives and to share a message of resilience, healing, and hope with anyone who needs it.
Marty’s journey
A Different Way Forward
Marty is a miniature dachshund who lost the use of his back legs—but never his spark. With his wheels, he still meets every day with determination and heart, and a spirit that refuses to slow down. His journey has not always been easy, and it has taught our family that mobility looks different for every dog—and that joy does not depend on circumstances.

Every Adventure Needs a Sidekick
Marty brings the determination; Woody brings the goofy energy, loyalty, and mischief. Marty’s taller sidekick stays close through vet visits, victory laps, and everyday adventures. Together, they show how friendship and a little canine mischief can change a life.
Welcome, Jazzy
A New Chapter for the Pack
Baby Jazzy is the newest member of the pack, and she has already brought her own energy, charm, and personality to every new chapter. She is a reminder that every dog adds something unique to a home—and that there is always room for one more.
Why we share
Hope Has a Way of Spreading
MartyWoody.com is a place for stories, videos, updates, and encouragement for special-needs pets and the people who love them. We share Marty, Woody, and Jazzy’s everyday moments to build a community around the joy animals bring to our lives, because hope spreads best when it is shared.
In memory of Lola
The One Who Paved the Way
Lola was the foundation of our family and the inspiration behind everything we do. We miss her every day, but her spirit lives on in Marty, Woody, and Jazzy.
