SAMSON - MALTESE / POODLE (MINIATURE) (MEDIUM COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Maltese / Poodle (Miniature) (medium coat). Hello! My name is Samson, but my foster family calls me Tiny because of my size. I’m a Maltipoo, which means I’m a mix of a Maltese and Poodle. I’m a whopping 4 pounds, mostly consisting of beautiful black and white fluff. I was born on April 22nd, 2025. I’m living with my foster family now, including two kids and two resident dogs that are a lot bigger than me. The 40 pound dog likes to play with me until he gets annoyed by my energy level. I was “tested” on cats, and I was very curious about them— I chased after them, but they ran away from me. I’m slowly learning potty training, but still have lots of accidents in the house. I hate when my family puts me in the kennel, and I cry a lot. I just want to be near them cuddling! My foster sister spoils me and lets me cuddle with her in bed. I’m getting better at being in the car. My first ride in my kennel, I got sick but I’m warming up to being in the car. I love running around the yard and playing with my dog housemates. I don’t know how to walk on a leash quite yet. I’m looking for an owner who can teach me some more skills and who loves to cuddle and play. Adoption fee includes: Full veterinary exam, Alter, Prepaid microchip, Dewormed, Rabies vaccine (if age appropriate), Distemper combo vaccine(s) appropriate to age, Bordetella vaccine, 4DX (over 6 months of age), Flea/tick and heartworm preventative while in rescue. Adoption fee: $950.00
