Raised in a breeding facility, he missed out on the everyday experiences most dogs take for granted, so human touch and affection can still feel scary and unfamiliar to him. When nervous, Snickers will skitter away and try to create distance - he simply needs patience, understanding, and time to feel safe. Please note - if you want to skip the text and go straight to the application, you can find the link here: .carolinapoodlerescue/application/ Must have: A home with another dog and an experienced rescuer. Exercise: Medium. Snickers is a young dog. He does have knees that may require surgery as he ages. Appropriate weight maintenance is going to be important. He's also not built to run marathons with you. Best with: A calm, consistent, patient home that will offer him time and space to blossom into a confident dog. Not ideal for: First time dog owners, homes with young children, or homes looking for a dog that is going to snuggle immediately. Energy level: Medium What Snickers does know is how to be a dog with other dogs! He absolutely must have a confident canine companion in his forever home to help show him the ropes and give him comfort. Around other dogs, his silly, playful side starts to shine through, and you’ll see glimpses of the happy little pup he is becoming. Good with dogs: Definitely - he needs them Good with kids: Snickers has never lived with kids. Maybe if your kids are older and patient and will give him space. Cats: Snickers has never lived with cats. If you have them, let us know and we can test him. Fun fact: As timid as Snickers is about human touch, he is playful with canine companions. Potential Adopters Dogs can’t drive - and since we’re busy taking care of them, we can’t either! Please check your potential BFF’s location and make sure you’re comfortable traveling to 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.
