Story
Hi . . . my name is Angel. I’m a Maltese/Yorkie blended girl who weighs 11 lbs. I’m a senior gal at 10 years old, but you would never know it. In fact, I act more like a puppy at times both emotionally and energy-wise. I’m affectionate, playful, protective and curious. I’m looking for a loving home with a patient person(s) who can teach me all about manners and how to be the best girl that I can be.
Favorite Things: Angel loves her toys; her stuffies will keep her occupied for an hour or better. She loves being with her person at all times, including in their lap. This goofy gal likes to give kisses too.
Training & Manners: Angel is working hard on her housetraining and will need to be let out on a regular and consistent basis. She needs someone who will continue working with her on basic manners. Angel is food-motivated, which will lend itself nicely to continued training. She walks well on a leash but could use more walks to improve even more. She loves riding in a car.
Health and Care: Angel is spayed, up to date on vaccines, microchipped and had a recent dental cleaning. She is a healthy girl and only requires her monthly heartworm and flea prevention, as all dogs do. Her hair is thin but once her full coat comes in, she will be gorgeous! She may need occasional professional grooming after that time, but in the meantime, nail trims and the occasional bath will keep her feeling her best.
Other Animals: Angel loves to play with other dogs, but she doesn’t always know how. She can be a bit enthusiastic, which some dogs do not appreciate. Angel has no experience with cats, and we do not feel it would be a good fit for her.
Children: Angel is frisky and doesn’t understand (yet) not to nip when she is playing. She has not been observed around children and due to her small size, age and lack of prior socialization, we feel a home with respectful teenagers would be most appropriate.
Ideal Home: Angel would not be picky as to the type of home and would do well in a single-family home, condo or apartment. In her foster home, she has free rein and can be left for several hours without issues. She will let out a "woof" when the doorbell rings but is overall a quiet girl. After a hard day of play and sitting on your lap, she will happily sleep and dream in the “people bed” overnight.
Overall: If you are looking for a sweet “wiggle-butt” who will add love and laughter to your life, Angel might be the one for you.
