Name: Reina
Nicknames: Reina Marie
Breed: Maltese/Maltese mix
Sex: Female
Age: ~7
Weight: 10 lbs.
Before OMD/Medical: Animal Control seized 37 dogs from a hoarding situation (dogs were kept in a barn in filthy conditions) and reached out for help. Reina was one of the last dogs left at animal control from the case and we took her and her housemate, Pancake, into rescue. She saw our vet right away for a mammary tumor and suspected UTI, but x-rays revealed a massive bladder stone that took up almost her entire bladder (we can only imagine the discomfort she had been in..and for goodness knows how long!). She had the mammary tumor removed (and confirmed benign) and stone also removed, along with a dental cleaning.
Energy Level: Low to medium. Overall very mellow, but has moments of play and zoomies.
Descriptors: Cuddly. Affectionate. Loving. Sweet. Shy when meeting new people, but warms up quick once she feels comfortable.
Velco level: High. Wants to sit beside you or on your lap at all times.
What we love most: The way she continuously waves her front paws in the air when she is very excited. Her before-bed-time zoomies on the bed. How she loves to be loved.
What she loves most: Snuggling with her people. Being outside (although she tries to eat everything in the grass in a rooting fashion). Barking at the TV if she hears a dog.
What she doesn’t love: Being left alone(read: she will bark for a bit, and she would not be a good fit for a shared walls environment). The car.
Moonlights as: A Seal when excited, an anteater when out in the yard.
Basic commands: None tbh, but she knows her name!
House trained: Not totally (unsurprising, given her history as a hoarding dog and with long-term bladder stones) but making progress! She does ngo outside and sometimes on pads, but will also go on rugs
Crate trained: Nope. Reina does not like to be crated, and is currently left out when alone.
Dogs: She loves all the dogs in her foster home, but she needs to eat separately and has been known to resource guard foster mom's lap.
Kids: We think she would be just fine with dog savvy kids.
Cats: Yes as long as the cat is dog-savvy. Currently fostered with cats and, overall, does very well, but they do get her worked up at times
Ideal home: A family who will continue her prescription food to prevent recurring bladder stones. A family who is happy to treat her like a little princess and share their laps. Preferably a home where her people are home more often than away. Everything is new for Reina, so a patient home would be ideal.
Reina is spayed, vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She is available for adoption to residents of Connecticut and surrounding states. If interested in adopting, please complete an application from omdrescue.org
