Main characters

The Animals

• Martha: A talking dog. Martha was born a stray and was thrown in the dog pound as a puppy. Martha also had a lot of energy as a puppy. Not much else is known about her past. Martha gained the ability to talk after eating alphabet soup - the letters in the soup went to her brain instead of her stomach- which was an event that couldn't be repeated. Martha often sticks her nose in other people's business, trying to help, but sometimes causing trouble. Also, she mentioned she gets carsick when she was a puppy in Truman and the Deep Blue Sea. She has had jobs as a telemarketer, a radio talk show host, firedog, etc. In Martha's Pickle she mentioned that she still does her radio show from Martha Gives Advice. Despite her talk show, various community members seem surprised when Martha talks to them, or skeptical when someone mentions a talking dog.
