Description:

This is Jeffery and he is a sweet little Maltese mix. When he was found he had horrible matting and was covered in fleas. He has been shaved some to remove the painful chunks of hair. Once he grows his hair back it is longer and soft.

Jeffery may look like a little old man but we believe it was just bad breeding. Jeffery is missing most of his teeth. His has the cutest underbite, too. He is now healthy and happy to be pain free and getting the care he needs.

He has lived with dogs of all sizes, kids, and cats. He does not seem to mind any of them. The children in the home must be respectful and gentle with Jeffery because loud noises and quick movements make him nervous.

He settled in nicely in his current foster home. Jeffery enjoys snoozing in his foster dad's lap and following his foster mom around. He is still a bit unsure about leash walking and going up and down the stairs, but is making great progress. He demonstrated that he is housetrained and earned human bed priviledges where he sleeps at night without a peep.

Jeffery is not really a barker, although he joins in when the resident dog reacts to something outside.

He is crated during the day and does just fine. He is looking for a home to pamper him like he should be. Things are looking up from here on out for this little guy.

Adoption fees are non-negotiable and can be paid by cashier's check, money order or credit card. We do not accept personal checks.

Post Adoption: Any issues that arise after adoption are the full responsibility of the adopter after the finalization of adoption. We highly recommend Pet Insurance. Adoption fees are only part of the expense of owning a pet, so we ask you to consider the costs for the life of the pet before adoption. We recommend pet insurance.

Pet Breeds: The pet you are viewing is a rescued pet which is most often from an animal control facility or Shelter partner. The breed(s) listed are our best guess and are in no way guaranteed.

If you choose to DNA test your adopted pet, test results may vary from company to company and our breed guess may not be reflected in those results as it is just that, our best guess without knowing a pet’s full history.
