Story
Meet GEORGE 🐾💙 Ohhhh, George. ❤️ George is an adorable little 5-pound Maltese who came to us along with Brownie & our sweet Lil One 🌈 as part of the same 19-dog breeder surrender. When George first arrived, we honestly thought he was a 9–10 year old senior. He was emaciated, shaved, had horrible teeth, tested positive for hookworms, had poor posture & seemed completely unresponsive to voices or sounds. He would randomly bark late at night, constantly soil his crate (& then dance in it 🤦‍♀️) and just seemed... lost & confused. But then we started putting the pieces of George back together. Deworming. Vetting. A much-needed dental where he lost quite a few teeth. High-calorie, good-quality food several times a day. And LOTS of TLC. George has gained over a pound—which is HUGE when you're talking about a dog his size—and as his little body has gotten healthier, something pretty amazing has happened. George started showing up. His eyes became brighter. He started standing a little taller. He began engaging with us, playing & discovering toys. And that little dog we thought couldn't hear? We called his name....& George responded. YES!! HE CAN HEAR!! YIPPIE!! 😂❤️ With his health improving & his true personality starting to emerge, our vet now believes George is probably closer to 7 years old. We've gotten him over the biggest medical hurdles. Now comes my favorite part—helping him learn how to LIVE. Like Brownie, George spent his life in a breeding/kennel environment, so some of the things most dogs take for granted appear pretty new to him. He'll need help with housetraining & learning how to walk on a leash, along with a patient person who understands that his development may be a little behind. And then there are the moments that just make your heart smile: George will take a toy or bully stick into his cozy little bed, pick it up, toss it around & BARK at it like a puppy. Watching this tiny guy discover toys and play might seriously be one of the most adorablest things ever. George doesn't need someone to spend the rest of his life feeling sorry for where he came from. He needs someone excited to show him where he's going. Someone patient enough to teach him. Someone who will laugh at the silly moments, celebrate the little victories & understand that some things may take him a little longer because nobody bothered to teach him before. He's got a beautiful life ahead of him. And with some consistency, patience, love & a little fun training, I'm pretty sure he's going to become the most perfectest little George he can possibly be. ❤️ Are you ready to help him shine? 📝 Apply: https://www.shelterluv.com/embed/animal/PPFL-A-4072 📍 Adoption radius: 150 miles from Jacksonville, FL 🏡 All other pets must be current on vaccinations, spayed/neutered & on heartworm prevention.
