About Rhomulus

Meet Rhomulus, a lively 10 lb neutered male Maltese mix who’s about three years old and ready to bring joy into your life. This little ball of energy loves to bounce around, cuddle, and even show off some impressive acrobatics. Since arriving at his foster home, he's turned heads with his sweet demeanor and undeniable love for laps. If you sit down, expect him to snuggle right up to you and make himself comfortable. Rhomulus is a social butterfly, full of friendliness and charm. He’s shown no fear around men or school-aged kids and plays well with other dogs. He’s still unfamiliar with cats and toddlers, though, so please consider that when thinking about your home dynamic. This little guy strikes a perfect balance; after burning off some energy with his zoomies, he loves to curl up and relax. Though he is generally quiet, he can’t resist barking along to music, showcasing his fun-loving personality. In terms of grooming, Rhomulus requires regular professional attention to keep his coat in tip-top shape, and luckily, he’s already accustomed to being pampered. His future family should ensure he’s secure outside; he can squeeze through wide fence slats and has the acrobatic skills to leap impressively high. If you’re looking for a loyal sidekick who’s both affectionate and entertaining, Rhomulus is ready to meet you! Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
