Story
Hi! My name’s Worm (short for Wiggle Worm), and I’m a 3 ½-year-old Maltese with a whole lot of personality packed into my little body. I might be small, but don’t let that fool you—I’ve got the energy of the Energizer Bunny and the confidence of a Great Dane. 💪 I don’t walk like other dogs—I bounce! It’s like my feet are made of springs, and I’m always ready for my next adventure. Whether it’s chasing my toys, zooming around the yard, or just keeping you on your toes, I’m a whirlwind of excitement. 🌀 I’m sweet as can be and great with kids (they match my energy!). I’m also okay with dog-savvy cats who can handle my big personality. However, I’m extremely picky when it comes to other dogs. I do not get along with large dogs, so I need a home where I can be the king of the castle or have very carefully chosen small-dog friends. 👑🐾 Now, about my living situation—I need a secure yard with a 5-ft fence (no chain link for me, please—I’m clever and might try to escape!). A GPS collar is also required, just in case my springs launch me into a new adventure. If you’re looking for a bundle of chaos, cuddles, and non-stop entertainment, I’m your guy. Adopt Worm today, and let’s bounce into a lifetime of fun together! 🐾✨

Story
Meet Oreo Oreo is a 14 year old Maltese mix with a soft white and cream coat and eyes full of wisdom and kindness. He is calm, sweet, and loves being near his people. He though he can be corky at times he is allowed. Oreo enjoys slow walks, gentle pets, and curling up in a cozy spot for a nap. He is easy to please and even easier to love. Despite his age, he still lights up when someone talks to him or offers him a treat. He would do best in a peaceful home where he can relax and enjoy the comfort he deserves. Oreo is the kind of companion who will quietly stay by your side, offering love in the most sincere way. Oreo does have moments where he can become reactive in certain situations. He will thrive with a patient understanding adopter who will respect his boundaries. Oreo will reward you with unwavering loyalty, affection, and companionship. Oreo is ready to spend his golden years surrounded by care, comfort, and love. There is no adoption fee for our seniors we only ask for a possible donation.

Story
Recently arriving at Little Shelter and eager for a fresh start, meet Billy, a six year old Maltese mix. Displaying a gentle, sweet-natured spirit along with a desire to seek and give affection, he has gradually been finding his footing and growing in confidence. Hoping to find a family that will be patient, understanding, and allow him time to fully acclimate, he’s ready to take on the role of “best friend”. Highly observant, he’ll make your walks more interesting as he points out the small details you may miss, keeping you focused on staying in the present. A good listener, he’s also the perfect sounding board for all your future dreams, offering encouragement and loyal support. If our boy Billy sounds like he could be the one for you, stop by soon to say hello. Trust is built in little moments. Every wag, every glance, every quiet movement by your side is their way of saying, “You’re my safe space.” *Billy is fully grown and housebroken*

This poppin’ fresh duo, lifelong friends and bonded “brothers” are Pillsbury & Doughboy, nine year old Maltese mixes.

Gentle, good-natured, and fun-loving, they are charming companions and adaptable to most living situations, making them perfect for nearly any household. If this puff pastry pair appeals to you, stop by to meet Pillsbury & Doughboy today and create some magical memories of your own. *Pillsbury & Doughboy are fully grown and partially housebroken*

Story
Buddy is a 4 yr. old maltese/shihtzu mix looking for a forever home where he can thrive.  This litle guy is a "work in progres". He can be great or he may snap at another dog in the home when they pass by or when he's asleep or with a toy.  Buddy can be loving when he wants to!  So Buddy is good when he wants to be, on his own terms, and he's not going to be your cuddle bunny.  He will play with other dogs, when he wants.  He will also guard his people, and when his foster Mom leaves the house he's not to happy about it so will go after her feet!  So this is Buddy, the cute little fluffy guy, but read carefully... AND  Here's the important part, so Buddy finds the perfect home!  He needs an ADULT ONLY home, experienced in resource guarding who is open to working with a trainer and behaviorist so Buddy can be understood, and all can live in Harmony.  This is something that is common in dogs and can be managed.  A strong confident person who will set boundaries for buddy, which includes keeping him OFF furniture like sofa and beds.  Buddy truly is a love and needs all the support he can get to find his perfect "forever" home.  Please only put in an application if you are able to give Buddy the structure and understanding he needs. Please go to the link to fill our our adoption application.  https://www.remembermerescueny.net/adoption-application  Remember Me Rescue does not adopt out of the local area, no transport is available.  We adopt to Long Island, Westchester, NYC area and parts of Connecticut only.
