Story
Meet Pickle! Fostered in Jackson NJPickle is a sweet 9-pound, approx 2-3 year old Maltese looking for a patient and understanding home where he can build confidence at his own pace. This adorable little guy is very shy and may hide under a table or find a quiet spot when he's feeling nervous. While he takes time to warm up, the reward is well worth the wait.With gentle encouragement and plenty of treats, Pickle slowly begins to trust. His favorite snacks are cheese and peanut butter, and they're a great way to win his heart! Once he feels comfortable, he'll happily come over to see what goodies you have for him.Pickle is pee pad trained and does well when left home alone. He's still learning to walk on a leash and will need a family willing to help him continue building confidence out in the world.One thing Pickle would truly love is a calm female dog companion around his size. Having a gentle canine friend to snuggle with helps him feel safe and secure, and he enjoys the comfort of another dog by his side.  For this reason, we will only consider a home for him with another female dog companion.  Due to his timidness, we are looking for a home with a fenced yard.Pickle is searching for a quiet, loving home that understands shy dogs and will give him the time he needs to come out of his shell. In return, you'll get the joy of watching a timid little dog grow into a trusting companion. If you have patience, kindness, and a soft spot for underdogs, Pickle may be the perfect addition to your family.  Pickle is neutered, vaccinated and microchipped. To apply for Pickle,please click the link to submit an application.  He is looking for a very special furever home who understands his needs, and. is committed to helping him continue to come out of his shell. https://peytonsplaceanimalrescue.org/adoption-application/ ##2830168##
