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

Meet Herbert

A tiny 7-pound gentleman with soft white curls and the most soulful little eyes you've ever seen. Estimated to be around 7-8 years old, this adorable Maltese mix was found as a stray in heartbreaking condition: underweight, dirty, and clearly down on his luck. But despite whatever he's been through, Herbert's sweet and loving spirit has never faded.

Herbert is currently on his healing journey and doing so much better each day. He is still working on gaining weight and getting stronger, and he has also had a growth on his head removed as part of his veterinary care. He's recovering beautifully and showing just how resilient and full of life he truly is.

Don't let his age fool you-Herbert does NOT act his age! This little guy is full of pep, excitement, and playful energy. He's a bright, fun-loving boy who gets excited about life and loves being around his people. One moment he's happily soaking up cuddles, and the next he's trotting around with curiosity and joy.

He is affectionate, people-oriented, and thrives on attention. His finder reports that he is crate trained and good with other dogs, making him an easy little companion to welcome into a home. He may be tiny, but his heart is huge, and his personality is even bigger.

Now that he's safe and on the mend, Herbert is ready for a fresh start and a family who will continue his healing journey with patience, care, and love. He deserves cozy naps, warm blankets, good meals, and a life filled with joy and security.

After everything he's been through, Herbert is more than ready for his happily ever after.

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.
