About Dahlia
Dahlia is an adorable 8-month-old Terrier/Maltese mix, currently weighing around 11 lbs. She’s already spayed and up to date on all vaccinations. This little pup is eligible for the foster-to-adopt program, which allows you to care for her while completing the adoption process. Dahlia is a baby with plenty of potential and energy. She will thrive in an environment that provides structure, daily exercise, and mental stimulation—about 90 minutes of active play each morning. This is essential for her development as she grows. It's worth noting that Dahlia requires an intermediate-level owner who has experience with similar breeds. She gets along well with other dogs and is social with cats, making her a great addition to a multi-pet household. However, she is better suited for homes with kids aged 8 and up given her playful nature. Dahlia is currently working on her potty training skills. As a puppy, she may experience some separation anxiety, so consistency and patience will be necessary. With commitment and some training, she will flourish in a loving home. Bringing Dahlia into your life means understanding her playful, mouthy puppy phase, and providing her with guidance and proper training. If you think you can give her the time and dedication she needs, this little one could be your perfect companion. Start your journey together! Apply now.
