Toby Los not only his home, but the only family he has ever known when his owner chose to move out and leave him behind in the apartment. When he arrived with us he had horrible dental disease and as a result had to have 18 teeth removed!!! Through all of that, Toby sweet, playful and with the energy of a 5 year old dog. He loves to do Zoomies, sniff walks and car rides!!Toby would love a family that includes him in their activities. He gets along with other small dogs selective with big dogs and great with cats! If they run he will chase them; but if they teach him who the boss is he leaves them alone. He would be better with kids over 12 due to his age.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Peke-A-Tese is a charming designer breed, a delightful cross between the elegant Maltese and the regal Pekingese. Originating from the desire to combine the best traits of both parent breeds, they typically inherit a compact, sturdy build, weighing between 7-14 pounds. Their coat can vary, ranging from the Maltese's silky white to the Pekingese's longer, often multi-colored double coat, requiring regular grooming to prevent matting. Temperament-wise, they are generally affectionate, intelligent, and possess a playful spirit, making them excellent companions. They adapt well to apartment living due to their smaller size and moderate exercise needs, and can be suitable for families with older children who understand how to interact gently with small dogs. Potential owners should be aware of common health concerns found in their parent breeds, such as patellar luxation, respiratory issues (due to their brachycephalic Pekingese lineage), and dental problems. Early socialization and consistent training are beneficial for a well-adjusted Peke-A-Tese.
