Meet Miso, the 10-month-old Maltese puppy who is pure love wrapped in five pounds of fluff! This little sweetheart is the definition of joy — her favorite place in the world is snuggled up right next to her human. Whether you’re watching TV, working from home, or just relaxing, Miso will happily curl up beside you and make every moment brighter. But don’t let her tiny size fool you — Miso also loves to play with other pups! She’s a social butterfly who enjoys romping around with dogs big or small, then curling up for a nap once playtime’s over. She’s great with cats and gentle children too, making her the perfect little addition to a loving family. If you’re ready for a life filled with snuggles, happy zoomies, and endless sweetness, Miso is ready to be the very best part of your day — every day.   Located in Northern Texas — available for out-of-state adoption (transport fee applies) Adoption Application: https://petstablished.com/adoption_form/13108/generic Amazon Wishlist: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14C2FGVGHQCWR?ref_=wl_share ##2455156##

Story
Heathcliff is a 1-2 year old 9 pound neutered male Maltese/Havanese mix.  Neuter, current on all vaccines, heart worm negative, microchipped crate trained and working on house training. Heathcliff is still learning about the world and will need a family that understands the time, patience and commitment that comes with a young adult dog. This will include potty training, learning basic commands, regular exercise, and lots of play time. Heathcliff is very curious and likes toys so make sure you have lots of toys to help him grow into a well manner adult dog. Heathcliff would do best with a dog his size, age and energy level. He loves to play. His breed will need regular grooming. If you are ready to welcome this sweet boy into your home and help him grow into the best dog he can be ,I would love to meet you. If you are interested in meeting Heathcliff please submit an adoption application.      Adoption fee is 275.00       We do not have a facility to house the dogs in our program. They are all kept in foster homes until they are adopted. Therefore, if you are interested in adopting from LHS, please complete an online application at http://legacyhumanesociety.org/adoptfoster/adoption-application/ and we will contact you asap about the status of your application.
