My story
QUICK FACTS Name: Sasha Age: 7 years old Gender: Female (Spayed) Breed: Maltese Mix Color: White Weight: 3 kg / 6.6 lbs Microchipped, Fully Vaccinated Up to Date, Dewormed MY RESCUE STORY Hi, I'm Sasha! I'm a sweet seven-year-old Maltese mix with a beautiful snowy white coat, a petite little frame, and a heart full of love. I've been fortunate enough to experience the warmth and comfort of a loving home, where I shared many special moments with my adopter. Unfortunately, due to an unexpected medical emergency, my adopter suffered a stroke and is no longer physically able to provide the care I need. This difficult change in circumstances means that I'm now searching for a new forever family. Although my time with my previous family has come to an unexpected end, I'm grateful for the love and companionship we've shared. Through it all, I've remained the same sweet, gentle, and affectionate little girl who loves being around people. At seven years old, I'm hoping to find another loving home where I can continue enjoying the simple happiness of family life. I have so much love to share, and I'm looking forward to creating new memories with someone who will cherish me. MY HEALTH Spayed All vaccinations up-to-date Healthy with no known health issues Previous history of possible vocal cord surgery MY PERSONALITY I'm a wonderfully sweet, friendly, and affectionate little girl who absolutely adores people. I have a gentle personality and love spending time with my humans, whether that means receiving cuddles, relaxing beside them, or simply enjoying their company. I've always been a people-loving dog, and I'm happy to receive affection from both familiar faces and new friends. I enjoy being close to people and am comfortable being picked up for cuddles. Although I love attention, I also have a calm and peaceful side. At seven years old, I'm happiest enjoying the simple pleasures of life: a comfortable place to rest, gentle affection, and the reassuring presence of someone I love. I'm not a particularly demanding or high-energy dog. I simply enjoy companionship and being included in my family's everyday life. My gentle, affectionate nature makes me a lovely companion for someone looking for a small dog with a big heart. I may be tiny, but I have so much love to give, and nothing makes me happier than sharing it with my favorite people. MY SOCIAL SKILLS With People: I'm a very friendly and affectionate girl who loves human companionship. I enjoy receiving attention, cuddles, and gentle affection from both familiar people and strangers. I'm comfortable being picked up and love spending time close to my humans. My sweet personality makes me a wonderful little companion for someone who enjoys having an affectionate dog by their side. With Children: I'm good with children! My current information indicates that I can do well around kids, although introductions should always be supervised to ensure gentle and respectful interactions, especially because of my small size. With Dogs: My current compatibility with other dogs is uncertain. Previous observations suggested that I preferred having my humans' attention to myself and could be assertive around other pets. However, my present behavior around dogs hasn't been recently confirmed, so careful introductions and a compatibility assessment would be important before placing me in a multi-dog household. With Cats: My behavior around cats is currently unknown, so any introductions would need to be gradual and supervised. MY ENERGY LEVEL I'm a calm, low-energy girl who enjoys a relaxed and comfortable lifestyle. I don't need constant excitement or intense physical activity to feel happy. I enjoy gentle walks, spending time with my people, and relaxing in a cozy environment. After a little activity, I'm perfectly content settling down and enjoying some quiet time. My peaceful temperament makes me a lovely match for someone who appreciates a calmer companion and enjoys spending time at home. MY WALKING SKILLS I'm already leash trained and comfortable going for walks with my person. I enjoy having opportunities to explore outdoors and spend time together without needing particularly strenuous activities. Because I have a calm energy level, gentle daily walks are a lovely way for me to enjoy fresh air, exercise, and companionship. I'd be happy with a family who enjoys relaxed strolls and appreciates having a sweet little walking companion. MY HOME LIFE & MANNERS I'm a lovely little companion with several habits that make me well suited to home life. I'm house-trained for both indoor pee pads and outdoor potty routines, giving my future family flexibility in maintaining a schedule that works for us. I'm also generally quiet and bark minimally. My gentle, calm personality makes me a peaceful companion to have around the home. I travel well in the car, which makes outings and transportation easier for my future family. One of my favorite things is simply being near my humans. I love affection and enjoy being included in everyday activities, whether that means relaxing together or following along as you go about your day. My previous profile also noted that I didn't guard food from people or other pets, although this hasn't been recently reassessed. Because I'm transitioning from a home where I was already loved and cared for, I'll benefit from a stable routine, patience, and reassurance as I adjust to my new surroundings. WHAT I'M STILL LEARNING At seven years old, I already have many wonderful qualities and established habits. I'm leash trained, comfortable with indoor and outdoor potty routines, calm at home, and generally quiet. My biggest adjustment will be learning to feel comfortable in a new home with a new family. After having an adopter of my own, suddenly needing to start over may take some getting used to. I'll appreciate a family who understands that even a friendly, affectionate dog can need time to adjust to unfamiliar surroundings. My future family should also take the time to understand my current comfort level around other animals, since my compatibility with dogs and cats hasn't been recently confirmed. With a predictable routine, gentle encouragement, and plenty of affection, I hope to settle into my new home and feel secure again. MY IDEAL HOME My dream home would be a calm, loving environment where I can enjoy the comfort and stability of being someone's cherished companion. I'm a very people-oriented girl, so I'd love a family who enjoys spending time with their dog and appreciates a sweet, affectionate personality. Whether we're relaxing together, enjoying gentle walks, or simply spending a quiet afternoon at home, I'll be happiest knowing I'm loved. Because my current compatibility with other animals is uncertain, a home where I can be the only pet may be a good option. A home with other animals would require careful introductions and an assessment of how comfortable we are together. I'm good with children, although gentle interactions and supervision are important because of my petite size. I'd especially appreciate a family who can provide a consistent routine and help me feel secure as I transition into this new chapter of my life. Most importantly, I hope to find people who will love me for the sweet, gentle companion I am and give me the stability of a forever home once again. WHY YOU'LL LOVE ME Sometimes, life brings unexpected changes, even when we're surrounded by love. My name is Sasha, and I'm a seven-year-old Maltese mix with a snowy white coat, a gentle personality, and a heart that still has so much love to give. I've been lucky enough to know the comfort of a loving home and the special bond that comes from having someone to call my own. Unfortunately, my adopter recently experienced a serious medical emergency and is no longer able to care for me. While this wasn't the future anyone had planned, I'm now hoping to find another family who can welcome me into their hearts. I don't need a complicated life or endless adventures. I just want someone to love. Someone who will enjoy my gentle affection, take me on peaceful walks, and let me curl up nearby as we spend our days together. I'm friendly, sweet, and affectionate. I'm calm at home, walk nicely on a leash, travel well in the car, and know how to use both indoor potty pads and outdoor potty areas. Most of all, I love people. I may be seven years old, but I still have so many beautiful moments ahead of me and so much affection waiting to be shared. I'll always be grateful for the love I've experienced, and I'm ready to carry that same love into the next chapter of my life. I've already known the joy of being part of a family, and now I'm hoping to find another loving home where I can continue sharing my heart for years to come.
