Mushu is an 8-year-old Maltese, weighing just 11 lbs, who has spent his whole life with his current family. They're now too busy for him, but he's ready for his own person to step up. Mushu might have some years behind him, though he doesn't act it—he still loves sprinting across the yard and craves attention from his people. He's a fan of adult humans and even enjoys the company of cats, but he doesn't want anything to do with other dogs or children, whether they live in the home or just visit. Mushu needs to be the only dog in an adult household. He's still working on house training, but his love of food and eagerness to please makes training doable for someone with patience and time. He thrives on companionship and would do best in a home where someone is around much of the day. A private, fenced-in yard is a must—he’s not interested in meeting the neighborhood, just getting his energy out in peace. Mushu is in Port Saint Lucie, FL.
