Story
We are still getting to know sweet Tigger, a Malshi (Maltese x Shih Tzu) puppy with an absolute heart of gold! He is very young, and his personality, energy level, and adult size will continue to develop as he growsbut he is already showing what a special, affectionate boy he is. Tigger is currently being fostered in a home with kids and absolutely loves them! He is a total people-dog who lives for snuggles, warm cuddles, and being right by your side. Combining the cheerful, sweet nature of the Maltese with the sturdy, loving charm of the Shih Tzu, Tigger is the ultimate family companion. Even better, he is already making great progress in his routine and sleeps wonderfully in his crate overnight! As a young puppy, Tigger is intelligent and eager to please, though his small size and sensitive nature mean he thrives best with gentle, positive reinforcement training. Adopters should still be prepared for typical puppy behaviors as he finishes growing upincluding teething, chewing, ongoing house-training, frequent potty breaks, and fun bursts of puppy energy. The Right Home Tigger will thrive in a home that can provide: Kids or family members who love to play and shower him with affection Patient, consistent house-training and frequent potty breaks Positive-reinforcement training and early socialization Daily playtime, mental enrichment, and age-appropriate exercise Plenty of companionship, cuddle time, and inclusion in daily family life Patience through normal puppy phases like teething and chewing A lifelong commitment to regular grooming, coat care, and veterinary visits He is not a good fit for someone looking for a dog that can be left alone for long periods immediately.
