About Chewy

CHEWY is a 10 year old, 8 pound Maltese who was found as a stray. He was microchipped and the owner was located. He was given back to her and only to show up loose again the very next day! She was contacted again and said she could not take care of him so she surrendered him. Chewy is the chillest little dude. His two favorite things are hanging out with his people and sleeping. He says hi to everyone with tail wags and by asking for pats on the head. Chewy is friendly with other dogs and enjoys their company, but is not much of a player. He is decent on a leash but likes to go the direction he wants, which is not necessarily the direction you want him to go! We know he will wander so a fenced yard is preferred and he loves sniffing around the yard and exploring. Chewy has zero teeth, but has no problem eating. Actually, he is a bit of a foodie! Other than a few attempts at marking when he first got to his foster home (not unusual for a male dog in a new home) he has had no accidents and seems to be housebroken. At night, Chewy likes to sleep in the big bed with his foster family. He has been to the vet for a wellness check, is up to date on shots, neutered, fecal tested, heartworm negative, has had a 12 month ProHeart heartworm prevention shot, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. When he was found, he was covered in fleas and he has some flea dermatitis that is being treated and is clearing up nicely. MORE about CHEWY: We have not had him around cats or kids since we have had him but we think he would be fine with both. However since he is not tested with children we would prefer older kids. He will be a great companion dog!
