Melanie is a white female Maltipoo (Maltese/Poodle mix). She is only 10 lbs and big as she will get. Heartworm negative, UTD on vaccines, rabies, microchipped, dewormed , spayed and recently groomed. She is on monthly preventions for heartworms fleas & ticks.

This special girl was born to a breeder. He kept her to breed but she only produced one pup, so therefore she isn't a money maker and he surrendered her to us. We are the only rescue this breeder works with in surrendering all non productive dogs or those he retires. Let me say in all the dogs we do get from him, they have always been on heartworm pills, exceptionally clean, live in his home. He only breeds them once yrly and retires them at 4-5 yrs..

I do not promote breeding but this breeder is the exception to taking very good care of his dogs. And we area fortunate to work with him to be able to place them in loving homes where they will never be used for breeding again and have a happy, healthy, normal dog life.

Melanie is little, yet she can let you know, hey come hold me. She loves to sit in your lap and be held. She is housetrained, yet she does get sick in the car. So a family which doesn't travel often would fit her best. She has not been around kids, so we don't know how she would be or cats. She has lived with many other dogs and our foster home has several dogs of all sizes and she has adjusted great.

If you would like to apply to adopt Melanie please email me
