My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Rhett is so sweet at just 7.8 lbs, he is a maltese mix (perhaps malshi maltese and shitzu) He just wants to be a lap dog. He is curious and can sit on your lap all day for belly rubs. He is fond of car rides, Starbucks, shopping at the outdoor mall. He did well when visitors pet him.

Rhett knows how to walk on a leash and that to ride in the car he needs to sit in the back seat. Rhett prefers walks and will scratch at the front door to do his business, but uses puppy pads.

Rhett is not found of a crate when he is locked in or going to the vet. Both make him tremble....he needs patience.

Rhett would be a excellent pet for a low key senior or adult home. Rhett has not been tested with kids under 10.

Rhett was on a Euthanasia list at a local shelter on Easter
The glorious miracle is he survived a death sentence.
