Patrick’s an 8yo 9lb Maltipoo. He’s dog and kid 7+ friendly. He’s housebroken when kept on a schedule but will wear a belly band in the house. He loves toys and acts like a puppy. He loves being with his people, getting tons of attention and love. He's so loving and wants to be held, sit on your lap or cuddled next to you at all times. He will bark to be picked up. He loves to be put in a dog sling carrier and go on errands with you. Target is his favorite store. Patrick’s foster requires a home, where someone is home often, so not to be left for long periods of time or can be taken with them, be picked up to be allowed on furniture to get attention, cuddles and love along with assistance with stairs, and using ramps for getting on/off furniture. If your home DOES NOT meet these requirement’s please DO NOT put an application in. We will not call anyone whose home does not meet the needed requirements. Also, we will be concentrating on local to foster applications 1st since home checks and meets with all humans and animals in home is needed at meet. Our fosters are all volunteers so aren’t always able to travel too far. Patrick as all dogs should have at least 2 weeks in their new home to decompress with just their people who live in the home and to not have people over for at least 2 weeks. Dogs need time to settle in and adjust to their new people and environment first so they can learn to trust them first. Patrick came to Tiny Paws in March 2025 with Grade 5 Intervertebral Disc Disease. This caused complete paralysis with no deep pain sensation in his back legs. After months of daily red-light therapy along with muscle supplements and water therapy, Patrick is not only walking, he’s running! He will need some assistance with stairs, and ramps for getting on/off furniture. We along with his vet are just AMAZED at his progress over the past 11 months! He’s neutered, vaccinated, HW negative and microchipped. Currently in Mt Laurel, NJ.
