 Danny is a darling Maltese boy who came to us from a shelter partner who confiscated 16 dogs (we took 3 of them) from a home that had 21.  The owner was 16 dogs over limit and was a backyard breeder and hoarder.  These dogs were clearly loved if not properly cared for.  They had not been to a professional groomer.  Our groomer was able to clean them up nicely going slow, gentle and encouraging them through the process.  His new owner will have to have such a groomer on board to get him used to being properly groomed for the rest of his life.  We are looking for owners that have maltese or alike breed type experience.  Those who know how to properly take care of this breed ie: REGULAR PROFESSIONAL GROOMING!
This doll is only 7-1/2 years old and lost all 13 remaining teeth during his dental so he has no teeth left.  It's a Maltese thing.  If you can't afford the grooming and dentals, this is not the dog breed for you.
Because there were so many dogs at that home, they are not reliably house trained so much be taken out frequently and ideally contained in a pen with potty pads when you need to be away.  They will use the pads.  And they also are more at ease with other dogs around that are kind and welcoming.  Lara & Danny don't do well with over active types and really do love each other.  When all alone, he will cry a lot. 
He's now had current vaccines done, neutered, dental (he lost all of his remaining teeth), lab work, micro chipped and been professionally groomed. 
If you think you can give this doll a life time of love and proper care, please submit our adoption application for consideration.  
We will likely get a lot of interest in this boy and only 1 will be able to adopt so please note we have 4 year old Lara and 10 year old Babs (who will do best of the 3 adopted as a single dog) from the same place that are also Maltese and in need of stellar new families to call their own.
