Story
Name: Xuegao Gender: Male Date of Birth: August 16, 2019 Breed: Maltese Neutered: No Xuegao is an adult Maltese who has been with me since he was young. He is very bonded to his owner and does best in familiar, calm environments. With people he knows well, he can be affectionate and attached. Due to my current situation involving frequent travel between locations, unstable work circumstances, and financial hardship, I am no longer able to provide the consistent environment or ongoing care (including boarding and management costs) that he needs. Because of this, I am seeking a stable and experienced home that would be a better long-term fit for him. Xuegao can be reactive and anxious around strangers or in unfamiliar environments. When stressed or startled, he may bark excessively and show defensive behavior. For this reason, he would be best suited for: • An experienced dog owner • A quiet, stable household • No young children • Someone patient and willing to give him

Story
Maui is a high energy fun loving dog. He is great with kids but doesn’t seem to recognize that he’s 90lbs lol. Unfortunately a combination of military responsibilities, travel for work, my own postpartum experience, and my sons allergies have led us to the decision that Maui deserves a home where he can receive more quality time and attention. His only “issues” are pulling on his leash during walks and jumping to say hello if he hasn’t seen you in awhile. He has never had any issues staying with dog sitters even with other dogs present. We will provide one month worth of food, harness, leash, dog bed, his kennel, and toys.
