About Casper

Meet Casper! He's a 4-year-old male Maltese mix with a long, lovely coat in a striking white and cream color. Casper is a shy guy who prefers being held to going for walks right now, making him a perfect cuddle buddy. He has tested well with dogs and showed no reactivity in the cat room, so he may do well in a multi-pet household. Casper is looking for a loving home where he can gain confidence and be showered with affection. Given his shy nature, he would thrive with a patient owner who understands his needs. He isn’t altered yet and hasn't been vaccinated, so he’ll require a caring adopter who can help him with these important steps. If you're ready to offer Casper a warm, supportive environment, apply to adopt today!
