About Malva
Meet Malva, a resilient young dog who has transformed from a life of hardship into a playful companion. Estimated to be around a year old, she has already made a remarkable recovery from her past, arriving at the rescue weighing just skin and bones after being found in a distressed situation. Now, at 35 lbs, she sports a beautiful medium coat in shades of gray, blue, and silver. Malva is good with kids who understand to respect a dog’s space and belongings, and she’s house trained, although she’ll need a little time to adjust to her new home. With a heart full of affection, she loves interacting with other dogs, wrestling, and claiming toys as her own. While she underwent an orthopedic surgery known as Femoral Head Ostectomy to address a hip issue, Malva is still an active dog who enjoys walks and playtime. Her future family should be compatible with her orthopedic needs and willing to maintain her mobility with regular moderate exercise. This lovable pup is ready for adoption from Sherwood, OR, and sits patiently waiting for a family to call her own. Could that family be yours?
