Mimi is a 1-year-old Maltese weighing just about 9 lbs, but don’t let her tiny size fool you—this little girl has a heart full of love to give. She may be small, but her sweet and gentle personality makes a big impression on everyone she meets. Mimi came from a very sad background, but she is now safe and cared for with ROOT Rescue, where she will be fully vetted and spayed. Despite everything she’s been through, Mimi remains incredibly loving and trusting. She is both crate trained and wee-wee pad trained, making her an easy addition to the home. Mimi enjoys her walks but is just as happy being your constant companion—whether that means curling up beside you or tagging along in a tote bag or doggy stroller. Mimi does well with other dogs who are calm and closer to her size, but she prefers to avoid high-energy dogs. She’s also great with kids, making her a wonderful fit for a gentle and loving family. At this time, Mimi is looking for a foster-to-adopt home while she completes her vetting process. This is a great opportunity to welcome her into your life and watch her blossom into the happy, secure pup she’s meant to be. Please email us at info@rootrescue.org to learn more about Mimi or to apply to foster-to-adopt.
