About Becky

Becky is a 2-year-old Maltese/Terrier mix who weighs around 12 lbs. She’s spayed and looking for a loving home outside the city where she can thrive. Becky is an exceptionally gentle soul, but she's quite shy. She needs a patient adopter who understands that earning her trust will take time. She's currently getting used to being a dog, so expect to see her gentle spirit slowly emerge. Becky requires a lower energy environment, needing just a 30-minute daily walk along with short potty breaks. While she’s learning to embrace her outdoors, Becky really thrives in a calm, suburban setting with another dog buddy to help her adjust. She's not aggressive and shows no signs of separation anxiety, happily settling in her crate for rest. She’s still mastering potty training but is making good progress. Becky gets along well with other dogs, cats, and children, making her a wonderful companion. If you’re someone who’s willing to provide the love and understanding she needs, Becky might just be your perfect match. Click apply to start the adoption process.
