About Squeaky

Meet Squeaky! Squeaky is a 5-year-old male Maltese mix with a gentle and sensitive personality. He has a moderate energy level and has faced some challenges in his past. When he arrived, he was matted and unkempt, and he’s still learning what comfort means in a loving home. Squeaky tends to be shy and nervous, particularly around new people, so he’ll need patience and understanding from his new family as he adjusts. Although Squeaky may be blind in his right eye, likely due to an old street injury, his spirit remains unbroken. He is adapting to his environment and seeks safety and comfort. Squeaky thrives in the company of calm canine companions, as he does well with dogs. A compassionate home will help him gain the confidence he needs to flourish. If you're looking for a sweet friend and are willing to go at Squeaky's pace, he’s ready to find a loving home. He is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped, but please commit to a long-term relationship – he deserves a family for life. Ready to get started? What are you waiting for? Apply today!
