My name is Celia!

Celia came to the shelter on November 8th after being released/surrendered by a breeder who wanted to reduce the number of dogs at their home. She's a sweet and bouncy purebred Maltese who can be a little shy when she meets new people. She does enjoy attention and is very cuddly and playful. She came to us already microchipped and will be spayed on Nov. 26th. Her fee is $200.

Celia is looking for a somewhat quiet home without young kids. Someone who is experienced with her breed or similar breeds would be great. She does need basic training in all areas. She should be good with other smaller dogs and cats. She will require regular grooming.

NOTE:  Adoptions are done via private appointment once an application has been completed and approved. Applications must be submitted at our website, mchs.rescuegroups.org. Keep an eye on your emails if you apply.

We are located at 101 22nd St. SE in Austin, right next to the airport. It's exit 180B off of I-90, right off of 218 South.

We do require that potential adopters be at least 21 years old and that any resident dogs be up to date on vaccinations, heartworm testing and preventatives, and spayed or neutered.
