Story
Bogie is a purebred Maltese puppy. He will be 2 in October and generally a happy little pup. He is not suited for small children. They tend to want to hug a small puppy and this little guy has small fragile bones, as is standard with all Maltese. He is about 12.5 lbs and is a good eater. Eats dry food, and a wet food along with some treats. It is not easy to rehome him, however, we have a five year old Maltese who has adapted well to having another pet in the home. He has been paper trained, almost successfully. He will use pee pads in the home. He is best suited for a senior environment where he will happily sit on your lap for hours and will snuggle up to you in bed at night. I truly am looking for a quiet home for him. He certainly deserves a long happy life. It would be ideal if both can be rehomed together.

Story
Rudy is a hardy lovable boy. He does have some arthritis in his real legs so does not jump onto furniture, but we provide steps for him. He is on Gabapentin and Galliprant daily. He has fragile bones like many small dogs that is why I do not recommend small children. They hug toooooo tightly for those fragile bones. He will be five in December and we have had him since he was a puppy. He is quite and loving but can become aggressive when put into a chaotic environment. Approaching strangers is not his best characteristic. I was told by the vet this was his way of protecting me. He is house trained but has recently picked up a habit of "marking" and I have not had the proper time to address this issue, so he is ok with wearing a diaper in the house. I am in a situation where I am overwhelmed with other responsibilities and feel they "deserved" a better home than I am able to provide them. He has a younger brother who is two. His name is Bogie and they get along very well.

Story
Toby is an adorable and sweet dog. We have had him for 9 years since he was 8 weeks old. My father is blind and is living with me. Toby is playful and often gets in my dad’s way causing him to trip. Unfortunately a few months ago, Toby was diagnosed with diabetes and a heart murmur. Just a few days ago, I noticed a change in his vision. With my work schedule, dad’s health condition, and financial situation (single parent) I am unable to continue to care for Toby. It breaks my heart but I am looking for a caring and loving home for my Toby.I am able to bring Toby anywhere in the US.

Story
Moses will be turning 8 years old in October. He does not shed!! He has the energy of a puppy. He loves children. Has spent a lot of time socializing at dog parks along with my son’s dog and daughter’s dog. He is 100% house trained and he is not a chewer or digger. I would say his one down side is that he barks at people walking by and Amazon trucks. He also barks at animals on tv. He is sweet and loves to cuddle.

Story
Bebop, an 7-8 year-old Havanese Maltese mix, is an independent and loyal companion who loves being close to his person after establishing a relationship. He did not have the best previous life so you will need a little patience while waiting for him to warm up/trust you. He enjoys lounging around the house, getting chin strokes and back scratches, and would prefer to be home with you, though he can be left alone for periods. While he isn't very playful with toys, he loves going on walks and is a great car rider. Bebop is treat-motivated, which makes him easy to adjust to new situations or surroundings. He does not get along with other dogs and will bark or growl if he sees them on walks, so he's best suited as the only dog in the home. Overall, Bebop is a laid-back dog who simply wants to relax by your side and get lots of love & treats. If kept on a strict potty break schedule, he is potty trained.
