Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website. Please go to our website for all specific information about this dog.  Our info doesn't transfer over to the adoption sites.  Finch came to us with other dogs from a shelter cruelty case confiscation.  He is the sweetest, tiny little guy!  We've taken care of is medical needs (neuter, dental etc) and grooming but he has a pretty significant patella (knee) issue that we cannot address.  He gets around, including running around, just great.  He holds the leg up like a chicken wing and goes!  It causes no pain or discomfort.  He is only 3.8 pounds so no young kids in the home and someone needs to be around to get him outside more often as he won't hold it for long.  We continue to work on that daily.  He needs a professional groomer to keep his coat gorgeous too.  Maltese and very tiny dogs need lifelong dental care so be sure you're willing and able to provide that for him if you do apply for adoption.   Prior to adoption, our dogs are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, micro-chipped and parasite treated/prevented.   Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.May 27, 2025, 7:32 pm

Story
I’m a 7-year-old male, and I weigh just 3kg — small enough to fit perfectly in your arms or lap. I was rescued in the nick of time from a kill shelter, and now I’m hoping for a forever home where I’ll never have to feel fear or loneliness again. Right now, I’m receiving treatment for an ear infection. One of my ears is naturally closed, so my hearing isn’t perfect, but don’t worry — it doesn’t stop me from enjoying life. I also had a vocal cord surgery before arriving at the shelter, so I rarely bark — I’m more of a gentle presence than a noisy one. I’m independent and can coexist peacefully with other dogs, but deep down, I’d love a home where I can be the center of your world. I’m especially loving toward people, and I don’t hesitate to approach strangers with a wagging tail and a soft heart. I get along great with both women and men — no fear here! When it’s time for walks, I may pull a little on the leash, but I respond well to gentle guidance. I’m calm even in noisy cities, around flapping banners, passing cars, or bustling sidewalks. I don’t react to cats or birds, and I’m easy to gear up with a harness and leash. I’m not very interested in toys, but I do love food! Even so, I’m polite and gentle — I don’t guard my treats or snap if you take something away. I just want to share peace and kindness. I can handle low stairs by myself, but for taller ones, I’d love a helping hand (or an arm to carry me!). I stay calm even in busy or cluttered environments — nothing seems to rattle me much. All I need is someone who will come close, slowly and gently, with love and patience. I’ve been through a lot, but I’ve never stopped believing in people. I’m ready to give all of my quiet, loyal love to someone who sees the beauty in a little dog like me. With hope and a wagging tail, Winny 🐶💛
