About Mate

Adoption Fee: $275
Maltese mix
Age: Adult
Sex: Male

Mate is a 5-year-old Maltese mix. He weighs 9 pounds. He was surrendered in really bad shape with horrible teeth and a severely matted coat. He had to be shaved down entirely and has since had a dental. In the shelter he was showing fear aggression. Since his rescue he has done a remarkable turnaround. He has even been around children and has done fine. He does not react well to strangers but does warm up to them. We expect that to get better too. He does get jealous sometimes of other dogs. He will growl and bare teeth but has not bitten. He is learning not to do that in his foster home. He will let his foster Mom do anything to him without issue. He loves a lot of attention, walks, and to cuddle under the blankets. He has a moderate amount of energy and can be a wild boy. He is currently potty training and wears a belly band when not being watched but is doing well. He will need someone to go outside with him frequently. Medically he does have a stage 3 heart murmur that should be watched but presents with no other issues. He is neutered, up to date, chipped a has had a recent dental. His adoption fee is $275. Please visit www.misfitsdogrescue.org for an application. We are foster based, so we require your information prior to visitation.
