Maltese and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption in Houston, Texas

Meet Coral, a quiet little soul with the softest heart and the gentlest spirit.

This five year old Maltese mix weighs just 15 pounds, but she carries a story that speaks volumes. Coral is new to CAMO, and while we are still getting to know her, one thing is already clear. Beneath her shy exterior is a very, very sweet girl who wants nothing more than to feel safe and loved.

When she arrived, Coral was missing some hair along her back, covered in flea debris, and in desperate need of a dental, signs of a life that likely asked her to be strong more often than she should have had to be. Even so, she has met us with quiet kindness, leaning in softly for comfort and showing us glimpses of the loving companion she is ready to become.

Coral is the kind of dog who will blossom in a calm, patient home. She may not be the first to run up for attention, but give her a little time, a gentle touch, and a cozy place to land, and you will watch her transform. From street life to the sweet life, Coral is ready for a future where she is cherished, protected, and finally able to shine.

We know her best days are ahead of her. She just needs someone willing to show her that the world can be kind, and that she never has to be afraid again.

Adoption fee is: $375

ALL adoptions require a completed application, vet check, home check and final contract. The application to adopt can be found at www.camorescue.com.

Adoption fees are variable. Up to date vaccines, microchip, spay/neuter are included in the fee.

Once your application has been approved, we will put you in touch with a CAMO representative to set up a meet and greet. We select the best applicant for each dog, based on the dog's needs. For the safety of our small breed dogs and based on our past experiences, we will not place our dogs in homes with large breed dogs.

The Maltese is a small toy breed known for its glamorous white coat, which is long, silky, and virtually hypoallergenic. They are gentle, affectionate companion dogs that thrive on human companionship and make wonderful family pets. Maltese dogs are playful, intelligent, and alert, with a confident demeanor despite their small size. They require regular grooming to maintain their luxurious coat and are suitable for apartment living due to their size and adaptability.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
