Maltese Dogs Available for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

About Me

Meet Princesa, a sweet, snuggly girl who's ready to find her forever family! This lovable cutie is happiest when she's curled up next to you, soaking up belly rubs or playing with her favorite squeaky toys and tennis balls. She starts her day with a morning walk, enjoys breakfast, and then settles in for some toy time and naps. In the afternoons, she loves playing with kids and joining in on family fun.

Princesa is leash, crate, and potty trained, making her an easy addition to your routine. She's got a moderate energy level—she enjoys daily walks and even a jog, but she's just as content lounging on the couch with her people.

She's friendly with children and thrives in a family setting. While she's working on being more comfortable around other dogs and can be protective when strangers approach the house, her foster family is helping her build confidence. Princesa does need to be kept on a leash outdoors, as she's curious and quick to explore, and she's a bit of a scavenger, so keeping an eye on her during walks is important.

f you're looking for a loyal companion who will fill your days with cuddles and joy, Princesa might be your perfect match. She's ready to bring love and laughter into your home—apply to meet her today!
