Shih Tzu and Maltese Dogs Available for Adoption in Brunswick, Maine

Emmy is an 18-month-old Shih Tzu/Maltese mix who is just beginning her journey of learning that the world can be a safe and happy place. As a recent local surrender, she’s still adjusting to new surroundings and people, so she can be a bit shy at first—but underneath that timid exterior is an incredibly sweet and gentle soul.

The good news? Emmy is housebroken and already has a great foundation to build on. She would thrive in a calm, quiet home where she can settle in at her own pace. A fenced-in yard would be ideal for her, giving her a safe space to explore and gain confidence.

With patience, love, and a steady routine, Emmy is sure to blossom. She’s looking for someone who understands that trust takes time—and who is ready to celebrate every small step forward.

If you’re looking for a gentle, loving companion to grow with, Emmy might just be your perfect match. She is fostered in Brunswick.

Adoption fee is $475
