Description
Dog Breed: Maltese / Yorkshire Terrier Yorkie (long coat). Adoption Fee: $500. KENNEL ID #18804 Kenny and Leo, along with ten other dogs, were owned by a woman who used to breed them. Unfortunately, she developed frontotemporal dementia, which progressed very quickly, and the dogs were not being properly cared for. She is gradually allowing her family to find homes for the dogs, but she is reluctant to part with any of the females. However, we remain hopeful that she will eventually surrender them. Kenny is a 10-pound bundle of love who wants nothing more than to be close to his person — and his doggie friends! This little guy is as affectionate as they come and always happiest when he’s touching you and is also snuggled up right beside Leo or Bambi. Kenny has a funny, cat-like side — he loves to balance along the deck railing and has no problem climbing or hopping over gates (though he never actually goes anywhere). He’s a clever little escape artist who just likes to show off his skills! In his foster home, Kenny lived with four cats and quickly learned some manners after a firm “smackdown” from a 14-pound feline. These days, he knows better and keeps a respectful distance. Kenny does have separation anxiety and feels safest when he’s not alone, so he’ll need a home where someone is around often and where he has at least one small, friendly dog for comfort and companionship. Gentle, loyal, and full of personality, Kenny will follow you from room to room just to be near you. He’s ready to find a loving forever home that can give him the security, friendship, and affection he craves — or maybe even adopt him with one of his pals, Bambi or Leo! Adoption Fee $500 (includes neuter and dental) Thank you for your interest in rescue. If you would like to be considered for adoption, please submit an application to adopt.

Breed overview
Maltese
A.K.A.: Maltese Terrier, Maltese Lion Dog, Ancient Dog of Malta, Roman Ladies' Dog, Spaniel Gentle, Comforter Dog, Melita, Melitae Dog, Shock Dog, Maltese Island Dog, Maltese Comforter, Maltese Pocket Dog, Maltese Showdog, Maltese Champion, Teacup Maltese, Toy Maltese, Mini Maltese, Micro Maltese, Tiny Maltese
Overview:
The elegant Maltese is a delightful toy breed renowned for its captivating beauty and charming personality. Originating from the island of Malta, these ancient dogs were once favored companions of European nobility. Physically, they are characterized by their single coat of long, silky, pure white hair that gracefully drapes over a compact, well-proportioned body, typically weighing between 4-7 pounds. Their expressive dark eyes and black button nose add to their adorable appeal. Temperamentally, Maltese are known for being affectionate, playful, and intelligent, making them highly trainable and eager to please. They thrive on human companionship and are generally excellent with children and other pets, provided they are socialized early. Their small size and relatively low exercise requirements make them ideal for apartment living and suitable for families of all types, including first-time dog owners. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of common breed-specific concerns such as dental issues and luxating patellas.
