Story
hi Swiftie, this pretty girl is an approx. 4 year old Maltipoo. She was surrendered to our care from a commercial breeder in Lancaster when she wasn't needed anymore. She is 16 lbs. Swiftie has been a quiet and calm lady that allows us all handling without an issue (including a full grooming). She is a timid pup that is looking for a loving family to help her gain confidence and courage - while her past was not great, she knows it is only good things from now on. She just needs a bit of time and a loving home to help her adjust to this new, wonderful life. She will come spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, 4dx tested. She also had a dental. She would need to meet any resident dogs. If you are serious about adoption, please fill out the adoption application on our website www.phoenixanimalrescue.com Her adoption fee is $475.

Perigrove puppies in nj, I love this pup with my whole heart but he definitely needs more exposure to the world. Extremely anxious around strangers and outdoors, was raised in a not safe area where no walking was possible. Amazing with people kids and other animals indoors. He’s a great puppy, so lovable and deserves someone who is able to train him or help ease his anxiety.
