Description
Dog Breed: Bichon Frise / Maltese / Mixed (medium coat). The ultimate in a rags to riches story - or it will be as soon as this boy finds his forever home. Meet Rocket! He is an approximately 7 year old male Maltese/Bichon mix, who weighs in at approximately 9.2 pounds. Rocket was brought to Angels by a Good Samaritan as a stray who was as dirty as can be and matted to the skin(see comments for before photo). She had found him sitting in the rain on the side of the road. It was obvious to all that nobody had cared for this boy in awhile, but when 10 days passed without a peep from anyone, we knew for sure. We just canât figure out Why?!!?! Besides being tiny and adorable, Rocket has one of the most amazing temperaments weâve ever seen. Talk about good natured and going with the flow! Do you think he complained about getting that huge hair cut? Nope! Not once. We know it wasnât comfortable for him but he didnât complain not even ONCE! We donât know much about Rocketâs past - at some point someone helped him to become the kind and delightful boy he is today, we just donât know what happened in between then and now. We think he would do well in a home with just about anyone. Due to his size, we do require a home with kids who are 8 and up. He could probably be fine with one or more dogs in the home, but a meet and greet with any resident canines would be required. Cats shouldnât be a problem, most of them are bigger than he is anyway! We do not know if he is house trained (he does seem to be pee pad trained to some extent) but this boy is smart enough to get the whole going outside thing very quickly! He seems to be pretty well crate trained, and rides well in the car. This little dude is a GEM! His huge personality, joy for life and sweet demeanor along with all the tiny kisses he gives, will melt your heart. If you are interested in Rocket, we are currently accepting applications.

Breed overview
Overview:
The delightful Maltichon, a charming crossbreed of the Bichon Frise and Maltese, inherits the best traits from both beloved parent breeds. Originating as a designer dog, it quickly gained popularity for its adorable appearance and affectionate nature. Physically, Maltichons are typically small, weighing between 6-12 pounds, with a luxurious, non-shedding coat that is usually white or cream, often wavy or curly, requiring regular grooming to prevent matting. Their eyes are bright and expressive, and their overall demeanor is one of joyful curiosity. Temperamentally, they are known for being incredibly friendly, playful, and intelligent, making them highly trainable and eager to please. This gentle and loving nature makes them excellent companions for families with children and well-suited for apartment living due to their moderate exercise needs. While generally healthy, potential health considerations, common to small breeds, can include luxating patellas and dental issues, emphasizing the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary care.
