About Arth

Meet Arth, a small male Maltese, around three years old and weighing approximately 6.1 pounds. Recently taken in from animal control due to neglect, Arth has had a rough start but is on the mend. He has been treated for ear mites and is now receiving the grooming and veterinary care he needs. While he enjoys the attention and care he's receiving, Arth isn’t available for adoption just yet. This little guy gets along well with both other dogs and cats, which makes him a great addition to any pet-loving household. As he is currently undergoing treatment and needs some time to recover, we are not accepting applications at this time. Updates will be made once he is ready for adoption, so keep an eye on our Facebook page or our website. Thank you for your patience as we focus on getting Arth the care he deserves.
