Maltipoo Dogs Available for Adoption

Meet sweet bonded pair Romeo (male, Maltipoo, white, 12.6lbs, 6 years old) and Lady (female, Bichon Frise mix, black and white 12.3lbs 6 years old). Both are vetted, house trained and ready for adoption. Both will require regular brushing and grooming every 6-8 weeks.

Romeo and Lady, the dynamic duo of foster dogs who bring endless energy, laughs, and love wherever they go!
These two are the ultimate playmates—whether inside or out, they’re always up for a spirited play fight, tumbling around with mock growls and wagging tails.
Lady loves to tease Romeo into chasing her around the yard, turning every outdoor romp into an exciting game of tag!
They’re both expert squirrel, rabbit, and cat chasers (and Lady once boldly chased off a black bear raiding the garbage cans by the garage — talk about fearless!).
Romeo keeps the chase squad in line as the dominant one, but don’t worry, their adventures are all in good fun.
Food time? Romeo’s motto is “what’s mine is mine” — he doesn’t share treats or meals, so separate bowls are a must! But when it’s cuddle o’clock, they’re all about the snuggles. Romeo flips onto his back at any chance for those irresistible belly rubs, while Lady flashes her super cute underbite that melts hearts instantly.
Car rides are their absolute favorite! The second the backseat goes down, they explode with excitement, jumping around like it’s the best news ever. They love perching by the windows, watching the world zoom by and people-watching with happy, curious eyes.
They’re incredibly well-behaved and lovable—completely potty trained, fantastic around kids (the youngest they’ve met was five years old), and ready to crash in a crate or snuggle in bed (dealer’s choice!). As a bonded pair, they keep each other company perfectly while you’re at work, making them an amazing team.
Romeo and Lady are pure joy—playful, affectionate, adventurous, and so good at heart. They’re looking for a forever home where they can keep being their hilarious, cuddly selves!
