Description
Dog Breed: Maltese (long coat). DOB: 11/28/17 Approx. Weight: 6 Lbs Adoption Fee: $275 includes a 2 week trial to ensure everyone's happiness! Lola is an 8-year-old Maltese and a retired breeder mama who is finally getting the chance to just be a dog. She is absolutely adorable and has the kind of gentle presence that quietly melts your heart. She has a very sweet personality and truly shines around other small dogs, whom she loves to play with. While she’s still shy with humans, she’s learning that people can be kind and safe, and she does best with patience, routine, and a calm environment. Lola is currently working on house training and making progress as she adjusts to life in a home. Like many dogs who haven’t had this experience before, she just needs consistency and understanding while she learns. One thing she’s already mastered? Dinner time. When Lola is hungry, she will confidently stomp right up to you and bark to make sure you didn’t forget—proof that there’s a little sass hiding under that shy exterior ‍♀️ Her ideal home would be a quiet, loving household, with another small dog to help her feel confident, and humans who are willing to let her move at her own pace. In return, you’ll get a gentle soul who is learning how wonderful it is to be someone’s cherished companion. Lola is not a lap dog, she is held every day but at this time her foster Mom doesn't feel like she enjoys it. Lola did have a dental and lost all of her teeth except two. She currently eats canned food sp[rinkled with small dry kibble with a little warm water added. Lola does not walk on a leash so she will need a fenced yard to keep her safe when going outside. I have been spayed, vaccinated, heartworm tested negative and microchipped. If you are interested in adopting me, please complete the adoption application located at .furrykidsrefuge/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will get back to you as soon as possible. Furry Kids' Refuge is in need of good quality dog and puppy food with meat as the first ingredient.

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.
