*This dog is scheduled to arrive in Grimsby, Ontario on Saturday, January 18, 2025*Apply to adopt at rebeldogrescue.com*All adoptions with Rebel Dog Rescue have a 15 day probation period. Read about our adoption process on our website. Paulie is a sweet and affectionate 3.5-year-old Maltese mix whos ready to find his forever home. This 12-pound bundle of love had a rough start after being surrendered when his family moved, but he has blossomed into a warm, outgoing, and happy boy. Hes great with both men and women and does well with older kids who understand his need for gentle handlingquick or sudden movements from behind can startle him, but hes never shown aggression.Paulie is a social pup who enjoys the company of other dogs, big and small, and has even lived harmoniously with cats in the past. He sleeps and eats peacefully with other dogs in a playpen, never tries to escape, and keeps his space clean. When its time to head outside, Paulie is the first out the door to do his business and one of the first back in. His house training is about 90%, and he has done well with crate training. On walks, he does wonderfully using a harness (with safety clips) and is eager to stay by your side. He has a medium energy level, making him a great companion for both playtime and cuddles on the couch. He has shown no signs of resource guarding or separation anxiety.Paulie is looking for a loving home where he can feel secure and adored. If youre ready to give this affectionate little guy the fresh start he deserves, he will reward you with endless love and loyalty!Name: PaulieBreed: Maltese mixAge: ~3.5 years Weight: ~12lbSex: Male, neutered prior to adoptionColour: CreamMedical: No concerns - received x-ray as he was not eating for a couple days and we wanted to ensure there was no blockage.
