Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Q-Tip is a handsome, friendly and sweet six-year-old Maltese looking for a loving guardian. Q-Tip lived with a family with 12 and 13-year-old children and one other male dog, a Schnoodle. They walked into their groomer’s parlor one day and said they didn’t want their dogs any more. The groomer offered to find the dogs a new home. Q-Tip is looking for a family that will spend time with him to train, exercise and love him. He dances for treats, but is pretty stubborn and willful for such a small and utterly adorable dog. Q-Tip is very loving and very good for the groomer while she bathed him and cut his hair. Q-Tip is healthy, de-wormed, heartworm-tested, up-to-date on vaccines, and will be micro-chipped and neutered upon adoption. If you are interested in adopting Q-Tip, please fill in the online application at http://famousfidorescue.com/rescueforms/machform/view.php?id=26727 and follow up by contacting Gloria at fido@famousfidorescue.com or 773-907-0305. His adoption fee of $250 benefits the rescues of Famous Fido’s. The rescue has dogs of all sizes and ages looking for loving guardians. They spend their days at 5430 N. Clark Street in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood. Make an appointment to stop in and meet some of these lovable souls.
