Meet Tetra!

This little guy is as adorable as they come. Weighing only 10 pounds, he is the perfect size for a lap dog! Tetra needs a very patient house, as he is still very nervous around humans and is is learning that the world is not as scary as it may seem. He is being such a brave boy however, and we have no doubt that with soft voices, love, patience, and lots of yummy treats that he will blossom to be the boy he was always meant to be!

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.
