Meet Cotton, the adorable little heartthrob with a personality as fluffy as his Coton De Tulear coat! 🐶✨ At around 10.6 lbs and 8 years old, Cotton is more than just a dog; he’s a bundle of emotions looking for a loving home! Cotton is not just cute; he’s got BIG feelings, and he’s more than happy to let the world know what’s on his mind. With a past that might make anyone a little shy, Cotton is learning to trust again. Just picture him—barking and growling (fiercely!) when it’s time to put on his harness, but don’t be fooled; this little vocalization is just his way of saying, "I’m nervous!" He might lunge a bit, but this little fur ball never bites; he’s all bark and no bite! If you catch him watching a violent TV show, you might find him barking up a storm—it’s his own popcorn moment! 🎥🐾 But when it’s time for snuggles, Cotton transforms into a lovebug, putting his little paws on your knee and saying, "Pick me up, please!" Just remember his special pick-up rule: he prefers to be lifted facing away from you. Trust us; he’s worth it! Let’s talk about walks! 🌳 If you’re looking for a walking buddy with gusto, Cotton is your guy—he thrives on long walks and has a blast at the dog park! He can fit right into a home with other dogs or even shine on his own. And guess what? He’s also cat-friendly! Cotton has a few quirks from his past, but with a little patience and understanding, he’ll show you that he’s the most affectionate companion you could ask for! 💕 **Important Note:** Cotton would do best in a home without young kids, as his small size makes him sensitive to little hands! Now, cotton is lovingly cared for by the wonderful folks at Lil' Paws Maltese Rescue, a small, all-volunteer organization. They ensure every pup gets the love they deserve while living in a nurturing foster home—without a physical facility. So, if Cotton’s charm has captured your heart, don’t wait! Head over to the Buddy App and apply to adopt this lovable guy today! Together, you two can make the magic happen! 🌟
