Male Dog, Maltese
Maltese / Poodle (Miniature) / Mixed (Long Coat)
Description:
Gavin was born around February 2, 2023 and weighs about 7 pounds. Gavin was used and disregarded by a backyard breeder and thankfully found his way to Joyful Rescues. Gavin rides well in the car and will be an amazing family member for the right home. Gavin has lived a very isolated and likely abusive life and is very shy at first, but never aggressive. Gavin will wiggle and wag when a trusted person talks to him, and you can see he desperately wants to trust and love us. We will be looking for a home with another fun, confident dog in it to help Gavin come out of his shell. We are also going to say no children under 13. Potty training will be a work in progress, but he's a smart little dude, and with the proper patience and guidance, he should get the hang of it quickly. We do always recommend considering potty floor pads for these little dogs to just make life easier for everyone. We can't wait for you to meet him! The Adoption Fee for this dog is $600.00 Adoptions fees vary based on adoptability. In general our fees include spay/neuter, all age appropriate vaccines, Home Again micro-chipping & registration, worming & flea control - a "complete" pet. We accept CASH or Visa/Mastercard ONLY. Joyful Rescues has no funding except for our adoption fees and miscellaneous donations. Pet care and vet bills are expensive - you must be ready to take on this financial (as well as emotional) responsibility. YOU MUST BE AT LEAST 25 YEARS OF AGE TO ADOPT A DOG FROM JOYFUL RESCUES We keep our pet list as up-to-date as possible. As soon as a pet is adopted, it is removed from the list. If a pet is still showing, it is still available for adoption. Can't Adopt Me?
