Lucky is definitely what his name implies - Lucky!! This sweet boy was found in not so great shape, but we fixed him up and gave him lots of TLC. Despite what he's been through, he has the sweetest and gentlest personality. We think he's around 2.5yo and is great with everyone he meets!  ##2597804##

Story
Meet Madero! He is an adorable lap sized Maltese and Poodle mix around 7 months old. He is friendly and playful, eager to learn his manners and make new friends. Madero sleeps in his crate at night and is housetrained in his current foster home. Madero can be a little shy at first but once he warms up, he's the best cuddle buddy. He would prefer a home where his humans either work from home or are home more often than not. Madero is looking for a family that understands the time, patience, and energy needed to raise a young pup. Additionally, this cutie is going to need proper exercise, mental stimulation, and your attention and love to grow up to be the best companion. If you think you are ready to add to your family by adopting Madero then fill out an adoption questionnaire on our website today! We recommend completing the questionnaire and connecting with an adoption coach before looking for a dog or puppy you'd like to adopt. If you're already approved to adopt or if you've adopted from Labs and More before, connect with your adoption coach for the next steps. Your interest in adopting a rescued dog or puppy from Labs and More Rescue is appreciated! Please find our adoption information at www.labsandmore.org. Your adoption donation provides funding for Labs and More, a nonprofit organization which is supported solely by Volunteers and funded by donations. Good news is your adoption donation can be considered tax deductible. So much care is provided to your new dog prior to the adoption, including: spay and neuter, microchip, veterinarian visit(s), vaccinations, and other medical care as needed. Many of the dogs we rescue require extensive surgeries and care prior to adoption. Please understand we are unable to predict future behavior or medical needs of your adopted dog. We provide no guarantees regarding behavior, breed, or age of the dogs. Thank you for rescuing. Thank you for joining the Adoption Family with Labs and More Rescue.
