Calla Lily

Maltese Chihuahua

Female, Senior
Benicia, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
I adopted Calla Lilly from a rescue about 5 years ago. Her owner had died. She is a senior but has all the energy of a puppy. She is very loving and likes kissing and sitting on your lap. Currently she lives with a very old maltese. She is a great watchdog and will especially protect you from squirrels. She is only 7 lbs, but thinks she is a Great Dane. That’s the problem. I am marrying a man who has a German Shepherd mix, and Calla thinks she needs to protect me from him. We are concerned that Calla could be injured if they find an opportunity to fight or if the German Shepherd accidentally hurts her while trying to play. The maltese will not provoke the German Shepherd and is much bigger. She would probably do well in a family with children who would run and play with her.

HOWELL

Maltese Schnoodle

Male, 2 yrs 2 mos
Pt. Richmond, CA
Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
Details
House-trained, Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Howell/Ace of Hearts is getting over his skittishness and showing his playful, cuddly side. He’s a really sweet, soft, perfect-sized dog (20 lbs), with sweet grey-brown coloring and an adorable heart shaped patch of white fur on his chest. He’s youthful and playful, but has a chill, low-maintenance personality. Right now, he’s bonding with women and slower to come around to men, but that should change with time. With his current foster mom, he is affectionate, obedient and attentive. He cooperates with putting on his harness for walks but lifting each leg in turn, and is very gentle and well behaved on the leash. He seems fine with other dogs, showing interest and appropriate behavior. He likes to play a lot, chasing his new favorite squeaky ball and rag toy, but not manic or zany. He’s very quiet, and has only barked a little when he’s seen a squirrel in a tree and when he gets especially excited to play. He loves to sit outside under a bush chewing on his bone toy for hours. He’s taken to collecting socks and shoes from around the house, but hasn’t chewed on anything except his toys. He’s sleeping well at night in his dog bed. He shows no signs of aggression at all - has a very gentle mouth for taking treats. When he’s uncomfortable, his tail drops and he retreats. He’s going to make a lucky family very happy, and it suited to an active family where a female can take the lead at the beginning and continue to let him relax into his true, sweet, loving nature with everyone.

Spayed or Neutered,
Story
Skipper is the most outgoing and engaged of this bunch. He is bigger than his sibs, and is always in front of them in case they need protecting. He is super playful and food motivated. Once he trusts you he loves to roll over for some belly rubs. These castaways washed up on Milo’s doorstep sick and terrified. With proper medical care, good food and daily attention, they are slowly learning they are safe. It’s taking us time to work through the shyness, but it’s very evident that they just want to be with people they love. With patience and TLC, these sweet Shih Tzus are blossoming into loving companions.

He is independent but has made huge progress since arriving at our adoption center.
