About Mary

Mary is a 4 year old Maltese ready to find a great home! Mary was surrendered by family after the owner passed away in December of 2024. Unfortunately, scant details were provided about her. What we do know for certain is that she is young(er), was in poor condition (flea infestations), pancaked over thresholds, and was woefully under socialized. The really great news is that she is blossoming with good care, good food and a whole lot of love! Given Mary's proclivity for running zoomies, jumping on furniture and dogs, she is very much a puppy. Our best guess is no more than two years of age. Despite the joy and zest with which Mary greets life, she is timid. Mary expects for you to hit her when she is approached. She will immediately pancake to the floor, cowering. When she first arrived in foster care, Mary suffered two seizures which were most likely precipitated by the stress of constantly moving homes. Mary is on a vet approved protocol of CBD for seizures and has not suffered any additional seizures since. Mary is now house trained and is able to eat her food and digest without throwing everything up an hour after a meal. Mary, all sweetness and youth, acts as if her world is unsafe. She will require a home that is able help her become relaxed with knowing she is loved. Mary must have a very secure fenced yard as she is a runner and will jump and run at a moment's notice. Mary will do okay as an only dog but would do best with an active household with a confident, patient dog to teach Mary the ropes. Mary will bully a timid dog as she plays rough and pushes the limit. Mary is wary of a harness and allows one to be fitted but is still a scrambler on a leash. She is smart and will learn this in time. Mary is up to date on shots, spayed, de-wormed, micro-chipped and fecal tested negative. She also recently got a dental cleaning.
