Maltese and Yorkshire Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption

Pumpkin is a 1 year old Morkie who was dumped at a shelter just before Christmas with her 2 puppies who were only a few weeks old. She weighs about 9 lbs, is spayed and current on her vaccines now. Her puppies have been adopted and now it’s Pumpkin’s turn. Pumpkin is spunky, playful, and very affectionate. She loves having fun but is just as happy sitting close by your side keeping you company. She’s great with kids of all ages and other dogs, making her a wonderful addition to many families.

She is housetrained and has started a good routine in her foster home. Pumpkin also sleeps nicely in her crate at night.

Despite that rough start, she is loving, happy, and ready for her forever home.

Please do not email with questions. If you are interested in meeting Pumpkin, go to petresqinc.org to complete an adoption application. Approved applications will be sent to the foster who can answer any questions and schedule a meet.
