Story

Say hello to Clementine! This seven-year-old Maltese mix has a happy smile and a spunky little bounce that will melt your heart. She loves people, especially the men in her life, and is the perfect work from home companion, snoozing quietly by your side through the day and greeting you with her joyful “happy dance” when you return. Clementine is a nice medium energy pup, content to nap for hours while you work yet always ready for a short hike on wide paths or a leisurely neighborhood stroll. She enjoys belly rubs, snuggles, and is making great progress on her leash manners. She sleeps soundly in her crate, is potty trained, and can be trusted alone at home. Clementine is also very trainable and has done well with friendly dogs, though she would also thrive as the center of attention in a quiet home. If you’re looking for a loving, loyal, and delightfully quirky best friend, Clementine is ready to dance her way into your heart. Follow Clementine's adventures on her Instagram: www.instagram.com/icare_clementine If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E.

Story

Meet Remi! She is a darling 3-year-old Maltese mix with a big personality in a tiny 5 pound body. She’s as cute as a button and has been steadily putting on healthy weight thanks to her loving foster family. This adorable girl is sweet, high energy, and incredibly loving. She settled beautifully into her foster home where she sleeps quietly through the night in her crate and enjoys the company of the four dogs she currently lives with. Remi loves having friends and fits right into the fun. She is still working on her potty training, but she is doing well when taken outside regularly and responds wonderfully to a consistent routine. Remi will thrive in a home that can give her attention, playtime, and continued guidance as she blossoms into the perfect companion. If you’re looking for a tiny pup with a huge heart, Remi just might be your girl! If you are interested in adopting, please visit the I.C.A.R.E.

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
