About Crystal

Meet Crystal, a precious 10-year-old Maltese mix on the hunt for a cozy, loving home. Weighing just 6 pounds, this small companion thrives in tranquility and seeks a guardian who can cherish her gentle spirit and keep her close. Following her previous owner's inability to care for her, Crystal found herself transitioning to a rescue. She’s a calm little companion who enjoys nothing more than curling up beside you. Whether it's in your lap or by your side, she will gladly be your little shadow, basking in your warmth. Crystal fully enjoys sight but does need occasional eye care with Tacrolimus drops twice daily. Her new family will need to ensure she gets her medication consistently. This sweet girl yearns for a stable, affectionate environment where she can feel safe and cherished once again. If you're in search of a quiet lap dog to fill your days with love, Crystal might be the perfect fit. Crystal is searching for a sponsor to support her ongoing care while she waits for her forever family. If you’re interested in bringing this lovely girl home, please reach out. Potential adopters will need to travel to the Tampa area for adoption if approved, and must have verifiable veterinary history. Click apply to start the adoption process.
