Story
Pending adoption
We have a transport leaving in May 23rd 2026 from where we are located in Southern California to NorCal, OR, and surrounding states as needed for our adopting families where we bring our dogs all the way to their homes 💗 For peace of mind we never ask for anything up front. The adoption fee along with your share of travel costs will be due the day we arrive in person ultimately finalizing the adoption then and there with you. We would love to add Honey to our trip for the right family 😊
Honey is the kind of little girl who doesn’t rush into your heart… she gently finds her way there, and once she does, she stays forever.
At just 11 months old and weighing right around 7–8 pounds, Honey is fully grown and perfectly petite. She is a Maltese/Yorkie mix with the soft, silky coat of a Maltese and just the sweetest little Yorkie features peeking through in her face and ears. She truly is the most beautiful blend of both breeds—delicate, feminine, and absolutely endearing.
Honey came to us needing a little time, a little patience, and a lot of love—and she has blossomed so beautifully in our care. She can be shy when first meeting new people, but this is not a dog who stays in her shell forever. With just a little patience, her personality begins to shine, and when it does, you’ll see the sweetest, most loyal little companion unfold right in front of you.
She is wonderful with other dogs and does great with cats as well. She is also very gentle with people and children, making her a beautiful addition to a loving, patient home. Once Honey gives you her heart, it is yours completely—she bonds deeply and loves quietly but fully.
Honey is doing very well with her house training. She understands going outside and follows the lead of the other dogs here beautifully. With that said, she thrives on routine, and we strongly recommend her next home provides a consistent schedule to help her continue succeeding.
She has come such a long way with car rides. When she first arrived, she experienced some car sickness, but through consistency and short trips around town, she has completely overcome that and is now learning to truly enjoy being part of the journey. She is becoming a wonderful little road trip companion.
She is great at the groomer and handles grooming with ease, which is so important for a coat like hers that will require regular maintenance every 6–8 weeks.
Her leash training is coming along nicely. She is still building confidence, but she is learning and improving, and with continued patience and exposure, she will only continue to grow in this area.
Inside the home, Honey has beautiful manners. She enjoys playing but is not destructive in any way. She is just as content lounging nearby or entertaining herself as she is curling up close when invited. She brings a very peaceful, easy energy into the home.
Honey is crate trained, which means she sleeps peacefully through the night in her crate and will also use it during the day when she wants to rest. She finds comfort in having her own little space.
She is also a very quiet dog and not a barker, which has been such a lovely trait.
Honey is scheduled to be spayed this week and will be thoroughly vetted and cleared by our veterinarian prior to adoption. She will go home current on vaccines, microchipped, and with a full veterinary exam and health certificate.
Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/honey-2 which reflects the care she has received while with us.
Honey is not for someone looking for instant confidence.
She is for someone who understands that the most meaningful bonds are built over time… someone who will give her the space to open up, the patience to grow, and the love to become everything she is meant to be.
And when she does… she will be yours, completely. 💗
