Description
Dog Breed: Maltese / Poodle (Miniature). Meet Milo, a charming male mini poodle mix with a lively spirit and an even bigger heart. Milo is very sweet and loves meeting new people. His excitement can appear as reactivity at first, but it's just his eagerness to say hello. After introductions, he quickly settles into a friendly, attention-loving companion. Milo will thrive with continued guidance, and adopters are encouraged to connect with our Behavior Helpline at 831-264-5422 for tips and ongoing support in working through reactivity after adoption. We'll also make sure to speak with you prior to adoption so everyone is set up for success. Even better, Milo already has some great life skills-he's comfortable riding in cars and is highly treat-motivated, which will make learning new skills a fun and rewarding process with time, consistency, and positive reinforcement. Milo is currently available behind the scenes, so please ask Customer Care to learn more and arrange a meeting with him!

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.
