Current Location: Manchester, MD Hi, I'm Larry — a petite 7-year-old white Maltese ready for my forever home! 🐕 At just 10 pounds, I'm the perfect lap-sized companion, already neutered and set to join your family. I do great with other dogs, so if you've got a furry friend at home, we'll get along just fine! Come meet me and discover why this little guy has so much love to give. 💕 This dog tested positive for heartworm disease before arriving to the rescue. Heartworm disease is transmitted to a dog through a bite from an infected mosquito producing a positive test in six months. OPH will treat the dog and provide two weeks of recovery time prior to adoption. Potential adopters will receive detailed information on the disease and their role in completing the recovery process from OPH’s heartworm coordinator. With monthly preventatives, the disease is completely preventable.

Story
Meet Taffy! Taffy is a sweet little lady who has been through more than her fair share, and she's decided it's about time life started treating her like the princess she is! This precious girl was found abandoned on a rural back road, painfully matted, with fur so tangled it covered her eyes. Thankfully, after a much-needed spa day and plenty of love, Taffy is ready for her next chapter, preferably one filled with soft beds, tasty treats, and humans who adore her. Taffy is a gentle, low-energy girl who enjoys leisurely walks, sniffing around the yard, and spending time with her favorite people. She gets along beautifully with the small dogs and cats in her foster home and has a hilarious habit of pushing her big donut bed around until it's arranged *just right*. A girl knows what she likes! Despite being blind and deaf, Taffy is quite the communicator. She rarely barks but will let you know when she's finished outside or needs a potty break. She's making great progress with house-training and does well with regular outings, although potty pads are helpful. She also rides well in the car when safely tucked into a carrier and needs a little help navigating stairs. Taffy has some medical needs, including painful eyes that may require removal, a fungal skin infection that's being treated, and a grade 5 heart murmur that currently requires monitoring rather than medication. She also needs a renal diet and receives eye drops, which she would very much like to file a formal complaint about. After being abandoned, Taffy understandably struggled with separation anxiety, but she's become much more secure in her foster home. She'd thrive in a quiet, predictable household where her people are around most of the time and she can enjoy a consistent routine. Taffy has had a hard life, but she hasn't let it stop her from being an incredibly sweet companion. All she wants is a cozy bed, plenty of treats, and a family who will never leave her behind again. Taffy has spent enough time waiting for the good things in life. Could you be the one to give them to her? Apply today! Taffy is approx 12 yrs old and 10 lbs.
