Meg - Maltese Dog for Adoption in Pflugerville, Texas

Hi! I'm Meg — a teeny-tiny terrier-mix adventurer with a big personality packed into a 3 lb body. I'm estimated around 10 weeks old, and I take my job as Chief Explorer of New Things very seriously. If there's a leaf to investigate, a toy to pounce on, or a new corner of the yard to sniff, I'm on it.

My foster says I'm fearless, curious, and confidently independent — which is a fancy way of saying I can happily entertain myself with toys (especially chewy ones while I'm teething), but I'm also always down to join the fun with my dog friends. I'm playful, goofy, and full of happy puppy energy, and I love bouncing around outside like I'm on a tiny safari.

I'm working hard on my puppy basics and doing really well for my age! Potty training is in progress: I'm learning to go outside in the yard, and I also use a potty pad in my gated area (especially overnight). I have an open crate in my cozy little space, and Ill wander in there on my own when I'm ready to nap. If I wake up and need a potty break or I'm ready to come back out and party, Ill let you know with a little puppy protest.

I'm friendly with new people and tend to warm up fast — bonus points if you bring a toy. I do great with other dogs (I live with older dogs and another puppy right now), and I'd love a home with another friendly canine buddy.

My dream home is active, patient, and excited for all the fun (and training) that comes with a baby pup. A secure yard so I can zoom, explore, and practice my future superstar skills would be so fun!

If you're looking for a confident, silly sidekick who will make you laugh every day and grow into an amazing companion, I might be your girl.
