Maltese and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Beaverton, Oregon

Meet Wynston!

The vet thinks Wynston is 2-3 yrs old. He is super sweet. He loves kids and other dogs. He loves going for walks.

We haven't had him for very long, but Wynston has been pretty itchy. He has been treated for fleas but we think he may have some allergies, so we are trying him on a limited ingredient diet. He is already scratching less, but it's only been two days, so we will update after a bit more time.

Wynston is a little apprehensive about anything new and startles easily from unexpected noise. He would do best in a more quiet home.

Wynston is generally really quiet, but he has some separation anxiety and barks when you leave him alone so he's probably not a good choice for a home with shared walls (apartments, condos, duplexes, etc.). He may do better in a home with another small dog as a companion.

**Please note: Indigo Rescue only adopts to homes within 30 miles of Beaverton, Oregon. The first part of our process is to have you complete our adoption application.
