Description
Dog Breed: Maltese / Chihuahua / Mixed (medium coat). Please read the pet description IN IT'S ENTIRETY before applying. Thank you for your cooperation. NOT YET TAKING APPLICATIONS – NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR ADOPTION NEW INTAKE 7/27/2026: Lisbon - female - 4 years old - 11.0 pounds - Maltese/ Chihuahua mix Reason for intake: Lisbon came to us with Swilly and Pershing. Their 89-year-old owner couldn't care for them any longer. It was really a sad situation. She once was able to take great care of her pets, but age and finances have kept her from doing that for several years. They had lots of fleas and missing hair as a result from scratching. They are all spayed/neutered but do need vaccinations, heartworm tested, fecals, etc. They were clearly very loved. We will be posting them for adoption soon. NOT TAKING APPLICATIONS: Many dogs, particularly breeder, hoarder or senior dogs, can have multiple medical issues that need addressed. Additionally, sometimes we take in young puppies requiring multiple vaccinations and/or quarantining. In this particular case, we are not yet taking applications either due to age or possible illness or some other reason. We will post when s(he) is ready for adoption. In the interest of fairness, EARLY application submissions will NOT be considered. Please note… we cannot respond to messages/emails, etc., on dogs that are NOT yet available for adoption. Please wait until the dog is available for adoption. We will post him or her on Facebook in our Adoptable Dog Album pinned to the top of our page which you can follow at this link: .facebook/share/1B46skRWF5/ OR you can keep checking our website at .roadtorescuela. We appreciate your cooperation and understanding. “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated.” ~ Gandhi Be responsible ~ Always spay/neuter, keep your dogs on heartworm prevention, vaccinate against disease... and if you bring a pet into your life, commit to that pet for life. Blessings.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Malchi is an adorable designer breed, a delightful cross between the Chihuahua and the Maltese. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parent breeds, the Malchi typically inherits a small, compact size, generally weighing between 5-12 pounds. Their coats can vary, ranging from the long, silky hair of the Maltese to the shorter, smoother coat of the Chihuahua, often coming in shades of white, cream, black, or tan. Temperament-wise, Malchis are known for being affectionate, lively, and intelligent, making them wonderful companion dogs. They adapt well to apartment living due to their small stature and moderate exercise needs, and with proper socialization, can be suitable for families with older children. While generally healthy, potential owners should be aware of common small-breed health issues like dental problems, patellar luxation, and hypoglycemia, necessitating regular vet check-ups. Overall, the Malchi is a charming, devoted little dog perfect for those seeking a loving lap companion.
