Story
Attention! RIGBY Here! PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE BIO BEFORE INQUIRING ABOUT MY ADOPTION PLEASE :) I am a very cute, little, Maltese/Chihuahua (Malchi) boy, I was born February 7, 2019. I am timid but sweet once I get to know you, I am very shy. I live with other dogs at the rescue, so I am ok with dogs, again it takes me some time to trust. I have been with rescue a long time because I suffer from some type of doggie vertigo and get car sick really easy, I always have since I was a puppy, so its hard for most families who enjoy taking their pup traveling. Its better now than it was when I was little but I still am nervous in the car. I need a loving patient family to open their hearts and home to allow me time to get to know you... Could that be you?? I was rescued from Lancaster, our humans didn't want us babies and gave us away and kept my Mama (Chihuahua) and Daddy (Maltese). I had siblings but they gave them away to other people instead of the rescue... Here is some information on my Mix Breed https://dogappy.com/information-about-maltese-chihuahua-mix-malchi Yours with a happy tailwag! Rigby

Story
Meet Marty McFly! Marty is a lovable 1-year-old Maltese mix, possibly with Corgi or Dachshund, thanks to his long body and short, stubby legs. He weighs about 26 pounds and is affectionately known as a true Velcro dog. Wherever his people go, Marty wants to be right there with them, ideally curled up close and soaking in all the love. He has a fun, playful side without being overwhelming and enjoys wrestling with his foster brother, playing with toys, and chasing balls, even if he prefers not to bring them back. Marty is a friendly, happy boy who adores everyone he meets and hands out kisses freely. He is doing great with potty training and is learning basic commands like off, leave it, and stay. Leash skills are still a work in progress, but he is eager to learn. While car rides can be a little scary at first, he settles down once inside. Marty is looking for a loving home where he can share his big heart, playful spirit, and endless affection. Could Marty McFly be your perfect match?
