Description
Dog Breed: Maltese / Poodle (Miniature). Meet Neyetam and Kiri, an adorable, sweet bonded pair of small dogs who are looking for a home together. They are both soft, gentle, and shy by nature, especially when meeting new people, and will need a patient and understanding adopter to help them feel safe and confident. While they may take some time to warm up to people, they are very playful with each other and love to run around, chase, and enjoy happy moments together. Their bond is strong, and they truly bring out the best in one another. Once they feel comfortable, Neyetam and Kiri enjoy gentle pets and cozy lap time, happily settling in for quiet affection. With patience, consistency, and love, these sweet dogs will blossom into loyal and loving companions. They would do best in a peaceful home with children over the age of 7 who can be mindful of their sensitive nature, giving them the time and space to adjust comfortably while they continue to build confidence together, all while staying side by side with their best friend. Neyetam and Kiri are currently available by appointment. Good news, we qualify for our Foster to Adopt program! Please call (831) 264-5422 to learn more about them and meet them!

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.
