About Astrid

Meet Astrid! This gentle 4-year-old Maltese/Terrier mix weighs about 12 pounds and radiates sweetness, calm energy, and love. After a tough start due to a hip fracture, she has healed beautifully and is ready for her new chapter. Astrid takes life slowly, enjoying simple pleasures like a cozy bed, sunbathing spots, and leisurely strolls. Astrid is a quiet companion who enjoys being close to her humans without being demanding. She's great with both dogs and cats, bringing her calm presence wherever she goes. Although she’s leisurely in her exploration, she's becoming more curious and loves sniffing around at the park. Fully potty trained and leash-walking savvy, Astrid prefers to sleep in her crate, ensuring she feels safe and secure. While she occasionally tends to be a bit shy with new people, a little patience reveals her adorable personality and excitement. Ideally, she needs a home where she can thrive at her own pace, sharing quiet moments with a loving companion. If you’re in search of a low-maintenance yet affectionate best friend, look no further! Astrid might just be the perfect match for you. Her adoption fee is $300, which covers her first year of vaccinations, spay/neuter, and microchip. Ready to fall in love?
