Story
Meet Charlie 🐾✨ Charlie is a 4-year-old Maltipoo with a big personality packed into a small, fluffy body! He was surrendered when he became a bit too much for his elderly owner—but in reality, Charlie is just an active, smart little dog who needs the right outlet for his energy. In true small dog fashion, Charlie has plenty of spunk and loves to stay busy. He’s currently living with other dogs and children in his foster home and is doing well, but he can get a little grouchy if young kids try to pick him up when he’s not into it. Because of this, we think Charlie would do best in a home without small children, or with older, respectful kids who understand boundaries. Charlie is looking for an owner who will treat him like a dog—not just a lap accessory. He’ll thrive with someone committed to giving him proper mental and physical stimulation, structure, and guidance to help him be his very best self. With the right person, Charlie will be a fun, loyal, and entertaining companion who keeps you on your toes in the best way. If you’re ready for a little dog with a big personality, Charlie might just be your perfect match 💛

For inquiries email april@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $400 Location: Newport News, VA Meet Junior! Junior is a sweet, calm, senior gentleman. He is a Maltese type mix. He weighs about 12 pounds and is approximately 10 years old. (More photos to follow once he is settled) Junior was a stray at the shelter. He was being held for stray hold, then rescue placement due to his severe dental disease! He will most likely need a full mouth extraction. Junior is currently decompressing at his foster home in Newport News. He will have his dental, neuter and removal of a nodule on his tail on or before June 15th. For now he is resting, eating soft food and making new friends with his foster siblings. He will need a week or so to recover then he will be ready for adoption. If you would like to donate to his care please use the following links. His surgical estimate is currently hovering around $1300 not including vaccines and medications post operatively.

For inquiries email sharon@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $600 Location: Hopewell, VA UPDATE 5/14/2026: Fat Tony is continuing to train with his trainer Morgan. He is learning new people are not scary as well as learning how to handle his big feelings. He has been started on anxiety medication to help him process those big feelings. He is a complete love bug at home. He loves sitting with his person and watching TV. Fat Tony will need a patient home. He will need to continue the foundational training he is currently learning. His trainer Morgan is more than happy to give you a free lesson (or two) when you adopt him. He just needs someone to give him a chance.     UPDATE: Fat Tony is currently in a Board and Train program at Arf Limits working on his leash aggression and behavior. Watch our website for updates and videos on his progression.   Fat Tony is new in rescue. He is a 3 year old, 12 pound, Maltese (mix). He is perfect in every way except one...he doesn't like other dogs...his "inner Brooklyn" starts to show... In all seriousness, he does not like other dogs and is very reactive on leash when he meets other dogs. He will need to be in an adult only home as an only dog and a fence will be required for adoption. A privacy fence would be ideal. Fat Tony just wants to be with his people. He is sweet and affectionate in his foster home. If you want a lap dog who does not require walking, he is your man!   For more information please email his foster mom and follow us on our social media channels.

Story
Meet Finn. This 5 year young maltese mix is looking for the perfect home to call his own. Finn will need an experienced adopter that is familiar with dog body language and behavior. We may require multiple meet and greets with Finn to make sure he is good fit for your family. We highly recommend adult only home but if you do have children they must 16 and up. He will do best as the only animal in the home as he does not care for other canines. Finn is a sweet and loving dog but will need some work with socializing and confidence building. Due to his breed regular grooming will be an important part of care for Finn! Not to worry we have a great list of local groomers that we recommend. If you would like to meet this handsome busy fella please speak with our kennel team who will be happy to help!
