About Fawn

Fawn is a gentle, resilient 3-year-old Maltese ready for her second chance at happiness after life as a breeding dog in a puppy mill. Now spayed, up to date on her vaccines, and sporting a freshly cleaned smile from a recent dental, she’s put her past firmly behind her. Fawn had to undergo two major ear surgeries to relieve the pain from chronic infections—she’s a bit hard of hearing now, but so much happier. Every day, her playful, determined spirit grows stronger. Fawn prefers a peaceful home environment where she can nap on a soft couch and take life at her own pace. She gets along well with calm, respectful dogs and does just fine with cats. High-energy pups aren't her style, but she’s patient and caring with gentle kids. She’s still learning the ropes with housebreaking and leash manners, so a patient adopter is a must. If you have a quiet home and a lot of love to offer, Fawn is waiting for you. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
