Story
Rudy is a five-year-old Maltese who is a hardy and lovable boy. We have had him since he was a puppy, but I am currently in a situation where I am overwhelmed with other responsibilities and feel he deserves a better home than I am able to provide right now.Rudy is:• Friendly and gets along very well with his younger brother, Bogie• Quiet and loving in calm environments• House trained (though he has recently started "marking" and wears a diaper occasionally)• Managing arthritis with daily Gabapentin and Galliprant• Best suited for a home without small children due to his fragile bonesRudy uses steps to get onto furniture and is most comfortable in a quiet, stable environment. While he is very loyal, he can become aggressive in chaotic settings or when approached by strangers, which our vet describes as his way of being protective.
