CHRISSY: NOT AT THE SHELTER - MALTESE / MIXED (LONG COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Maltese / Mixed (long coat). After losing her human mom, Chrissy has been in the care of her mom’s friend while she waits to find a new home. It is so hard on dogs whose families pass on—and even tougher when they are seniors. Chrissy is seven years old, spayed, a little Maltese mix, and has many pages of vet records to accompany her to her new home. She has been around cats, dogs, and children. Chrissy does have a medical condition that might limit someone immediately swooping her up, so we will make sure we are transparent and describe that adequately. Chrissy has an issue that causes her to “leak” urine when she is relaxed and resting (hoping I interpreted her caregiver’s description accurately.) I don’t feel we need to describe the entire thing here, but if anyone is seriously interested in adopting, we will be happy to share what we can with an applicant. She is loved with her temporary caregiver, but Chrissy would really love to have a home all of her own again.
